Do you think the drinking age should be lowered from 21 to 18?

    The drinking age got changed after drunk driving accidents went up considerably. MADD (Mothers Against Drunk Driving) lobbied hard for the age to be raised from 18 to 21. Since that, the number of drunk driving accidents and deaths, although not eradicated, have actually decreased. Even self-report studies on binge drinking show a decrease since the age went up.

    So changing the rule did make a difference.

    I guess. I never really looked into it statistically though.

    There have ben quite a few studies on it. Most of them are pretty interesting so I definitely recommend it.
