From the perspective of someone without children but very interested in traffic safety ... has graduated licensing maybe made things less safe?
I thought the point of graduated licensing was to allow new drivers to learn to apply their skills in a controlled fashion. Instead, if kids are allowed to just wait until they're 18 to drive with no restrictions, they'll be out there with zero experience and zero driver's ed, driving without restrictions, just as they binge drink as soon as they turn 21.

Reason: seriously, I DO know the difference between "their" and "they're," just apparently not before my second cup of tea.
