 Strict Licensing Programs for Teen Drivers Cuts Rate of Fatal Crashes
A recent study has pointed out the benefit of licensing programs for teen drivers which have helped reduce the rate of fatal crashes.
Statistics show that nearly 37,000 teens have died due to motor vehicle accidents in the past 10 years.

States which followed strict licensing methods showed a 26 percent reduced rate of fatal crashes among teen drivers.

A strong graduated license program mainly works to limit the number of passengers, reduce driving during night time and completely discourage the use of cell phone while driving.
