[0:01]" WABC news radio -- thirty I'm Ricky jay and George J talk -- research shows that sixteen year old drivers have three times as many accidents and seventy funerals there is evidence that the part of the brain responsible for rational behavior -- He's actually physically underdeveloped at sixteenth. On the other hand perhaps it's the year of experience that matters and the first -- drivers have more accidents regardless of when that first -- start. The question is should the legal driving age be raised."

I think it makes sense to raise the age although I would want to be a sixteen year old have pictures we were acting crazy when you -- your accident and wasn't paying attention."
