There is a lot of debate around the issue of whether the driving age should be increase to 18 in the UK. At the moment the driving age in the United Kingdom is 17. We as a campaign feel that the driving age should change to 18. We believe the reason why there is a lot of accidents happing in the UK is due to young drivers. The reason young drivers are getting into accidents might be because they are either be by texting whilst driving, speeding or not knowing the safety of driving a car.

17 is way to young. kids these days have zero focus behind the wheel and 18 at least gives them one more year to mature a little bit.
ABOUT TIME. ive seen way too many reckless teens on the road lately. move it to 18 it will save lives.

make it 18. honestly i dont think 17 year olds are ready for the responsibility of a car. too distracted by phones.
