Hawaii teens are involved in 15 percent of fatal car accidents, while comprising only 6 percent of licensed drivers in the state. Parents need to set and enforce rules.

Public Sticky notes

GRADUATED driving requirements enacted by the Legislature last year were supposed to reduce traffic accidents such as the one that took the lives of two teenagers along the North Shore early Saturday, but it cannot be expected to eliminate them. Law enforcement, parents and schools must join in making the restrictions work, despite teenage peer pressure.
