Would have been a 'death car' for ME at that age, and even into my 20's. But not all 'kids' are like that, I'm comfortable with my 18 year old driving my Cobra, as he has done since an early age, on the street and the track. He doesn't even WANT to take the car out alone, he fully understands just how dangerous it is! But likes to drive with Dad along in the passenger seat.

I recently got him a motorcycle, an Endouro street/trail 250 and I ride along with him on my bike. He's very conservative (more than me). He grew up trail riding. I think a lot of it has to do with where you drive/ride. He avoids 'down town' like the plague, for instance, to much heavy traffic. Personally I think the freeways are safer than most 'side streets'.
