Should you be required to take a drivers ed class?

In Iowa you have to be able to take a drivers education class in order to receive your intermediate driver's license. This class helps you learn about the safety of driving. 

 

One pretty good thing about taking a drivers ed class is that you will be able to get more experience and learn alot of new things before you get on the road. Certain states require this class to be taken in order to receive your license at the age of 16. You will get more comfortable and become confident in it. When you get to be older it can help you become safer on the road for yourself and others.

 

A negative thing about being required to take this class is that the cost of it can be very high and some people are not able to afford it like others. With the cost being so high some kids do not get the experancie like others do and it can have an impact on others. 

 

I personally think that people should be required to take a drivers ed class in order to get there license. Reason for that would be they could get the experience and will be able to be more safe for themselves along with other drivers on the road.   

 

Should all states require a driver's education class?

 

Do you think that drivers ed will benefit you in the future?

  • I personally do think that all states should require new drivers to take a drivers ed course before they can get their license. I think that it just makes sense to have someone that if professionally trained teach young people how to operate multi-ton machinery.

  • I think that it is beneficial for children to take a driver's ed class. Before they get their license, it would be smart to teach them a basic understanding of driving. Some of the information in driver's ed is basic knowledge, but some other things are a little important to know.

  • I think that somethins they teach you is not helpfull but the actual driving will definitely benefit because if your parents just say that you are expeirenced their standards might be different. Doing all the classes and everything will make sure you are being a safe driver.

  • I think all states should require a drivers ed class. But I don't think that it should be 30 hours of driving required by the state. 10 for driving and 20 for riding with other people. I remember it being really boring and exhausting having to drive forever. It benefits you, and you should have to take it though. 

  • I think that all states should require a drivers education class. Drivers Ed is beneficial to learning students and helps them become safe drivers and to know what to do in the case of an accident or emergency. I think that it will benefit me in the future because it helped me understand the dangers of driving and how to stay safe. 

  • I think drivers ed class should definitly be required, Without doing a class you wont have much expierence and you arent safe and neither are other people. I think you should have to take some classes in the winter and in summer and rain so you know how to drive. 

  • I think that it should be required. You should have to take a class in order to drive out in public with other people. there is already enough bad drivers that have  taken  the class and it would only get worse if they didn't have to. drivers ed probably will help me in the future whether it's changing a tire or just following laws.

  • I think all states should require driver's ed classes. If you didn't take the class then you would not know the basic rules of driving. It also gives you experience driving so when you start driving you will know what you are doing. I think it greatly benefits you in the future. 

    • Yes I agree that it will benifit you in the future.

  • A drivers ed class should definetly be required before people can legally drive. Without a class, people won't be safe on the roads, and they also won't understand the dangers of what can happen if you aren't safe. People driving without being taught how to would just lead to a lot of unnecessary accidents and deaths.
