Yup. Not to mention the fact that you're still a few years away from your brain developing the executive functions (e.g. decision making abilities, and impulse controls) that adults have. An adult 'brain' where we have maturity in those aspects is right around 25 years old which is why college kids act like kids a lot of the time despite being mature in other ways.

I work with plenty of old people (40's and up, dwi) that make dumber decisions than most 19 year olds.
