A 16 year old is still a kid from a risk/benefit assessment standpoint. They aren't completely developed to meaningfully assess the risks of driving under the influence.
IF that is your opinion then 16 year olds should not be allowed to drive a car without another adult in the car. You cant have the same freedom without the same responsibility.
Its a big part of what is going bad with our country right now. You can not have it both ways. If you take the wheel, you are just as responsible as the other drivers on the road

Not at all an equivalency to what I'm saying. The kid is responsible for his actions in the car unless someone who knows better impeded his actions by giving him an illegal substance.

I agree. “He’s just a kid” doesn’t fly when the kid holds real world responsibilities with life or death consequences.
That’s like saying “poor Johnny. He was only seventeen when he accidentally shot his friend while hunting. Complete accident. He’s an A&B honor roll student and attends my church.”
