    I get where they are coming from, but I get what you are saying too.
    I'd be even more nervous than I already I am...and I've had mine since the 3rd of March.
    I'm about to turn 20.
    Here, in Georgia, when you turn 18, your license class gets switched from class D to class C, which means you don't have a curfew anymore.

    I just think it's a little crazy....

    Wow, that's... intense.

    I don't really feel right voicing my opinion on them, because ,well, it just doesn't really count coming from me, haha. When I see governments doing things like this, it's like a big alarm goes off in my head screaming, "NO NO NO!" But that's just my teenage rebellion talking, and I'll say my opinon anyway, haha.

    On one hand, they seem like a good idea. I mean, it's kind of just something that shows whether you're breaking the law or not, and there can't really be harm in that.

    On the other hand, I agree with the issues of flashing your age to everyone. Like, "Hey, I'm a teenager! Come take advantage of me!" Not good news.

    Anyway, I think I'd be alright with it, because there's always ways to get around it, like taking your parent's car, or saying you're taking your parent's car, or something along those lines.

    I get where they're coming from, but it still seems kind of stupid. I mean, you might as well slam a huge bumper sticker on the cars, because a tiny little red decal won't really help all that much.

    And yeah, I agree with the whole paranoia thing. In a perfect world, this would work and there wouldn't be any crazies. So... I guess just hit the gym and take self-defense lessons? :)
