BMV study: Teens who take driver's ed crash more | WHAS11.com | Louisville news, Kentucky news & breaking news | WHAS11.com | News for Louisville, Kentucky


INDIANAPOLIS (AP) -- Indiana lawmakers say they're puzzled by a study that shows teens who take driver's education are more likely to crash than those who don't.

The Indiana Bureau of Motor Vehicles study of current drivers under 18 showed those with driver training had nearly four times the crashes that those without training had.

BMV public affairs director Sarah Meyer says the numbers might be skewed by the fact that teens with driver education training get their permits earlier and have more time on the road, and therefore more opportunity to crash.

Some lawmakers say it may be time for an overhaul. Indiana's driver education system hasn't changed in 30 years.

Uh, does the study account for the fact that teens who take driver's ed drive sooner and more often?

I bet not. Never let logic get in the way of another shovelful of slops for the always-gaping news maw.

Does anyone else feel like the culture is getting stupider every day?

In Michigan, if you don't take driver's ed you don't get a license.....I wonder if they've taken into account the number of people who don't drive at all because they live in urban areas?......
