Bad driving would definitely affect your insurance premium, if that's what you want to mean.

i agree in one aspect that it will increase the premium.
but nonetheless if youngster are mentalist i suppose everyone has gone through that phase of young age.
Mr. incredable were you not part of the 'mentalist' bandwagon (as per your definition all young are mentalist) for some part of life.(youth i suppose is 25 yrs time frame)
So surely we all are mentalist (as per Mr. incredable definition) for some part of our life.
does anyone agree with the conclusion.

| Is he taliking about what use to be called "metal heads" where they dress in black and listen to heavy metal? I really do not think we can discriminate between our younger generation. They all usually go through an irresponsible driving phase. I was though surprised and quite delighted the other day when following a vehicle full of teens. The driver seems to enjoy the brake and mostly kept the car going at a reasonable speed. |

amit is right 
But jokes apart. It's really a very serious issue. These bad drivers never think that their driving is causing lot of trouble to other people. Other innocent people are being involved in accidents just for no reason.

i agree with the thing that bad drivers are from all the age group not particularly from younger generation(may be the younger guys may have the larger proportion in this) so surely people from every walk of life are involved in this reckless driving plz do not blame to younger generation only

I tend to discriminate by location. Example: right now I live in Birmingham Al, great city, but the road planning has turned out to be poor, and this has made the drivers frantic...
wasn't like this in Dothan or Auburn. And then again when I would visit Tuscaloosa, as soon as I got into the city limits I noticed my own driving got worse and began to be just a lil on edge about those around me.
so, location over age&fashion imo.

So what the heck does this ''term'' mean? come on "incredable" what is your definition of this term you threw out (or made up ) ?
I do agree though that most young drivers are not good drivers, but who is 'good' at anything when they first begin it? Also... 16 year old versus 80 year old? hmmmmm not really sure which to pick?

i strongly agree with lori about the term she has used.Surely nobody is perfect when they are in learning phase (even after learning phase also some are not the masters!! jokes apart)
People are there to criticize but it should be the 'positive criticism'.It shouldn't annoy anyone rather bring a positive change in the person who is at fault.Criticism should be such that the person who is at fault should voluntarily accept his guilt ..........that's the success of any positive criticism.

adbox i agree with you too on this issue. that location does matter.
