New teen drivers?

Yes, unless they are sending me boob pics, in which case I'm okay with it.

Yeah. You KNOW BETTER.  The other teens are not as smart as you. Hopefully they smash up their car into a moving brick wall...and live through it and realize that their insurance got the wall fixed and that is it.  Their car is now a pile of junk.  Their loss. Hopefully it was their money that bought the car. Mom & pop & relatives did not pitch any money towards the purchase the first time or any time after that.  Now they got to work for it and save money again.

. Sometimes only hitting them in the WALLET is the way to smarten them up.  Maybe the first time or the second time will have them driving those high cost wheelchairs around because now they cannot drive.  Or if they are real lucky they ride the gurney with a toe tag.

You see idiots. They don't know they're idiots. There will be great weeping and wailing when they  get traffic tickets for being idiots.

They grew up withscreens and can do three or more things at once. Besides insurance has their butts covered. 

Now you know why car insurance rates are so high for young people!

Short answer - yes - but you cannot change the way others drive. All you can regulate is how you drive and you'd be wise to by hyper-vigilant for other drivers whose eyes are glued to their phones and not the road. 

They will be arrested and their parents jailed if their stupidity causes injury or death so Kharma will eventually take care of them

The main cause of car accidents involving teens is distracted driving.  43% of all teen drivers will have an accident in their first year of driving.

Yes, they should be paying attention...
