I'm sorry for your family. I'm a little freaked out by how many people think gigantic SUVs are great "safe" cars for bad drivers. They're really prone to rolling and generally have way too much power, so whether they're safe for the driver is questionable and they're certainly not safe for everyone around them. My neighbor pressed the wrong pedal one day and drove into my house. I and most of my friends learned to drive on crappy old cars that had trouble getting up steep hills.
Anyway, I think maturity is something you gain by being in situations that require it. I'm not sure that keeping everyone in a padded room until they're 25 will result in fully mature adults walking out.
- icebraining 14y agoYes, but we could find ways of letting people mature that don't involve giving them control of two tons of accelerated steel on public area. It's not like people who can't afford cars stay children forever. For example, we could provide training areas/streets (paid, hopefully) where people can drive without big obstacles or crossing children.
