I will be attaining the position as one who believes that the driving age should be lowered to 14 years of age. I believe that the license test should be made more difficult and the 60 hours of driving experience should be retained, but teenagers need to learn independence at a younger age and self sufficiency which will eventually prepare themselves for college and future careers.

How is driving a desirable social skill for teen development? It only teaches them individualism and contempt for physical exercise. I say, raise the minimum age to 40 and the maximum to 41 -or even better, 40 and a day.

Reasons for voting decision: Forfeit. I'm glad Con said that explicitly instead of making Pro wait. I've always thought that is a more respectful way to resign.
