Georgia mom looking to get warning magnets mandated for teen-drivers

More useless junk, she could have just used her Baby on Board magnet.

George Carlin is probably turning over in his grave.

If we had real driver training in the US, then we wouldn't have a NEED to warn other drivers that another incompetent child is behind the wheel.

if a accident is meant to happpen its going to happen and theres nothing no sticker, magnet, or sign can do to help you at that point. so whats supposed to happen when they do get in an accident with this magnet they are forgiven I mean "COME ON GIVE ME A BREAK HERE" Another useless product......I understand what she is trying to do which is raise awareness of teenage drivers I applaud that but a magnet is not good enough. I think they should have teenagers take the 6 hour course for 4 years from 16-20 years old so they could get a better understanding on how their driving priviledge should be taken with all seriousness

I agree with this sentiment.

Driving licensing should be tougher than it currently is.

Now we just need a "Caution: Senile While Driving" magnet.

I would love to see lawmakers create a law where every X years you have to re-test your driving skills.

I would like to see a "Warning!!!! A tunnel visioned bitch driving an SUV, is on the phone, and putting on make up at the same time."

So you put it on your kids car or when they drive your car. Then they pull out go down to the corner, take it off and put it back on when they get home. Wow what a great idea. NOT!

Can anyone say "attachment issues." I always appreciate the lone @@shole out there who thinks they know better than everyone else and will force their "vision" on us through legislation. How about the following magnets as well:

Texting while driving
IQ<100 behind the wheel
Over the age of 70 and driving
Driver wears glasses/contacts/has had lasix
Driver has medical condition

I mean, where do you draw the line. If you can single out teens in the name of safety, then why not any other group. Cops don't need any more reason to cause problems for teens. Give me a break lady and get a life that does not involve annoying your son 24/7/365.

In the UK a lot of people put a green 'P' sticker on their car when they've passed to show they're a new driver. I mean you have to have 'L' plates when you're learning, so it's not that big a deal.

this can be more fun for me. whenever i see a drivers ed car, i will always try to taunt them. great fun i gotta say.

Most of the time if the driver thinks ahead,is cautious,has common sense and is somewhat skilled behind a vehicle he can avoid an accident.People will tailgate,speed by,and flick you off whether you've had your license for 1 day or 80 years.Thats just how it is. Besides, people trying to read that magnet can cause an accident just as much as anything else.So is it really helping?nahhh.They should make you complete a class ranging from 6 months to a year in highschool or other schools based on driving a vehicle. Even more,let half the class be based on how to drive a car and the other half on how a car actually works and how to avoid accidents,like when to apply brakes and how much pressure,what is hydroplaning,oversteer,understeer etc.
