Should teenagers be allowed to drive?

Certainly, many teenagers want to be able to drive, however this is a great responsibility and because of this, adults are discussing whether 17-year olds teenagers have all the requirements needed to drive or not, since they are not completely mature; but, still can handle adult issues.

Since at 17 years old, teens are still developing their personalities and they are discovering themselves some are more mature than others. Some have more adultish behavior while others are rather childish. So some adults are taking into account the irresponsible teenagers to form an idea that implies that underage citizens are not capable to engage with such a responsibility which is driving.

On the contrary to this widespread belief that young people do not have what it takes ,then, teenagers have proved themselves to be ones whom deserve the privilege of driving a vehicle. Contrary to antagonised ideas of young people, many have shown their amazing behavior, some even more so than adults. They also take responsibility of grown ups inconvenients.

As a conclusion, I personally believe that some 17 year olds have shown they are responsible enough and have earned the right to drive by putting into evidence adult-like behavior and their maturity required to get a driving because even though many adults believe they are not ready. If this is so, then they deserve a driving license.
