Reply to comment by Single_T in 5 Minors Killed in New York Crash Are Related, Recently Moved to Derby: Superintendent by Jawaka99

Adult supervision would have absolutely stopped an unlicensed 16 year old from driving a bunch of children around in the middle of the night. The most minuscule amount of supervision would have prevented this.

That may be true but I think its an entirely unreasonable assumption to think that a 16 year old will always have adult supervision. For example, I could reasonably trust a 16 year old to babysit younger kids, and if they had a car I could also reasonably trust them to drive themselves to and from babysitting those kids depending on the situation. I dont think this is the place to continue having this discussion because it is a sensitive and tragic situation. My thoughts and prayers are with the family, and I am going to leave it at that

Because you’re wrong. The kid didn’t have his license and shouldn’t have had access to a car to begin with.
