Episode Description
Getting your driver’s license has become more of a burden and less of a rite of passage for many 16-year-olds. According to a report by Next Gen Personal Finance, only 25.3% of 16-year-olds had their license in 2021 versus 46% in 1983. Dave and Debby explore the possible reasons for this, including e-bike popularity, the unaffordability of cars, or teen's fears of automobile accidents. D2 takes calls asking listeners if their teens are fearful of driving.
