The provisions of Sen. Mims' bill amount to a form of graduated licensing. Right here in our region, Maryland, North Carolina and Washington, D.C. have adopted graduated licensing with good effect. Thirty-six states have adopted some form of graduated licensing. The principle is good. The statistics support it.
Common sense says it's the right thing to do.
I hope you will join me in supporting the Youth Driving Safety Act, as introduced by Sen. Mims in the Senate and Del. O'Brien in the House of Delegates.
