AAA: Teens delaying licensure, but is that a cause for concern?

The majority of American teens today delay getting a driver’s license, according to new study by the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety. Less than half (44 percent) of teens obtain a driver’s license within 12 months of the minimum age for licensing in their state and just over half (54 percent) are licensed before their 18th birthday, causing concern among safety experts that young drivers are missing the benefits intended by graduated drivers licensing (GDL).
