W: Hey, Mike, what age do you have to be in Canada to drive?
M: Well, it used to be 16, but it recently got pushed up (提高) to 18. Now again each province controls its driving and the age limits, but in Ontario the age limit went from 16 to 18.
W: And how do you feel about that? Do you think that’s a good thing that you have to be 18 instead of 16?
M: Yeah, I think it should be 18 or even 20 before you’re allowed to drive.
W: Really? What do you think about someone who is 17, and so they’ve been driving for one year and then the law changes and becomes 18 as the minimum age (最低年龄的)? Do you think that the person who has been driving should lose his license for one more year?
M: Well, no, and I think generally… Well, that happened in Ontario. Of course that situation would have arisen. What happens then is generally… Laws are made, so that the people who have been driving are then put into a system where they can still drive but they’re under a probation (见习期) system until 18.
W: I see. So why do you think you should wait until you are 18 or 20 to be able to drive?
M: Maturity.
W: You don’t think at 16 you’re mature enough?
M: No. Because I think at 18 you’re an adult, and you’re more responsible, just like you’re not tried (审判,审理) in the legal system as an adult until you are 18 years old. I think that it should be the same for driving.
W: Yeah, I don’t know if I agree because I drove when I was 16.
M: So did I.
W: Yeah, and I felt mature enough. In fact, I know my father. When he was young, he actually began driving at about 12. When he was about 12 years old, he lived in the countryside and it was OK for him to drive at 12.
M: Well, I can understand that, because way back then there was a lot less traffic. I think that today, because the traffic is a lot worse, it’s a better idea to make sure the drivers are prepared and mature and understand what to do in case something goes wrong.
W: OK, fair enough. But how do you know that someone at 18, who has never driven, is any more prepared than someone who’s 16?
M: Well, you don’t, but generally if somebody is older and more mature, then they’re going to be a little bit wiser. They’re just going to make better decisions. That’s just my opinion.
W: OK. Sounds good.
