So, in New Jersey, on May 1 we have a law going into effect that requires all provisional drivers (17 year olds) to put bright red stickers on their license plates identifying that they are 17

A lot of people are bad drivers, regardless of age, but lack of experience definitely doesn't help that. I think a sticker should be used for anyone with a new license, even if they're not 17.

I think that's a total bullshit law. I really do not see how that would help anything. I pray to God they don't start that in NY.

I think it's a good idea for all new drivers, to let other drivers know and maybe cut them some slack.

i think it's a good idea...idk. i'm 17 and i think i'm a pretty good driver but so many kids my age drive like fucking maniacs.

i live in ny so i'm sure this law will spread over here soon. whatever, i'll be in college without a car anyway.

I think it's unnecessary. Also, the one person thing doesn't always make a difference, right after we all started driving, all of my friends wrecks where either with just one person in the car or by themselves.

Couldn't cops just check the license when they pull someone over? I feel like cops are going to go crazy ticketing teenagers for small things they otherwise wouldn't spot. Idk, maybe it's just me.

ia with that second part. My friend is 16 and she got a ticket for going into the left turning lane too early. I've never seen anyone go in through that opening.

that's stupid, i always get in those lanes kinda early because otherwise i either have to slow way down in the road and piss people off or slam on your brakes once you get into the lane

oh I know! and if you don't go to early people behind you get testy and try to get in before you can.
