Reading & Writing, Exercise 6 by three years. The editor of your school magazine has asked you to write an article
There is a proposal in your country to raise the legal age for learning to drive a car

explaining your views. Here are some comments from your friends:
'Most car accidents are caused by young people.'
'Learning to drive early is essential for independence.'
This is a sensible idea. People shouldn't be able to drive a car until they are in their twenties:
'You can't blame road accidents on young people-look at the way many adults drivel!
Write the article for the school magazine. The comments above may give you some ideas,
and you can also use some ideas of your own. Your article should be 100-150 words long,

  I'm especially interested in the proposal to increase the age at which people can get behind the wheel. Some youngsters are still immature; thus, I believe the age limit should be raised. They are unable to drive and as a result, this should be given top priority. The consequences of lowering the driving age would be even worse. Intoxicated or distracted drivers are to blame for the vast majority of collisions. Texting while driving puts teens at higher risk. It's also due to a lack of experience on their part. Young people are still learning to drive while adults have been doing it for decades.

Recent research found that many fatal vehicle accidents involve teenagers. When it comes to driving safety, adolescents aren't as concerned as they should be. More than one state has had great success with "graduated licensing. Organize a demonstration to increase the age of driving. The stakes are high, but you can handle it. If you don't explain why, you want something, you won't get what you want. Your own slogan and advertising materials may be created by you. Raising the legal driving age may be done with the use of flyers, which you can create and distribute. They should have access to a desert where they may practice driving before coming onto public roads, in my opinion.

Change words to your own style to avoid plagiarism.

author – information on the internet with a listed author is one indication of a credible site. the fact that the author is willing to stand behind the information presented (and in some cases, include his or her contact information) is a good indication that the information is reliable.

date – the date of any research information is important, including information found on the internet. by including a date, the website allows readers to make decisions about whether that information is recent enough for their purposes.

sources – credible websites, like books and scholarly articles, should cite the source of the information presented.

domain – some domains such as .com, .org, and .net can be purchased and used by any individual. however, the domain .edu is reserved for colleges and universities, while .gov denotes a government website. these two are usually credible sources for information (though occasionally a university will assign a .edu address to each of its students for personal use, in which case use caution when citing). be careful with the domain .org, because .org is usually used by non-profit organizations which may have an agenda of persuasion rather than education.

site design – this can be very subjective, but a well-designed site can be an indication of more reliable information. good design make information more easily accessible.

writing style – poor spelling and grammar are an indication that the site may not be credible. in an effort to make the information presented easy to understand, credible sites watch writing style closely.
