Teen Driving
“Driving Home an Important Point” (March 9) made me start thinking of when I was in my teenage years, wondering what it would be like to be in a drag race or be a spectator. I never did either. Now that I am older I appreciate that decision. I cannot imagine losing a friend or friends for a moment of pure adrenaline. Why can’t teenagers open their eyes and see that driving at 100 mph down a deserted street can only endanger their lives? Somehow, we need to get a message to them that the need for speed is not the way to be.
