I think those items are related, actually. They restrict alcohol in part BECAUSE we have a younger driving age and they're trying to force additional safety.
What you may not get is how essential cars are in the US. In the EU, you have far more viable options for public transit. You can get to school, to work, to entertainment without necessarily needing a personal vehicle. The US is simply too large to have build the infrastructure already for truly effective mass transit.
this is the reason. young people are already poor drivers, we don't need them drinking and driving as well...i'm glad the majority of ATOT can't figure that out though
