Of course it's more serious and dangerous, no one said any different. The argument was that young men stupid decisions shouldn't include their driving when it is probably is at the top of stupid decisions list. Young males driving cars have a tendency to do dumb shit like racing, peeling out from a stop, and going at rates well over the speed limit. This happens on a daily basis with hundreds of young men, most get by with it, some don't and hurt themselves and/or others and some never see tomorrow. I think back to a handful of times when I was young where I was as stupid as it gets with my driving. One time driving a Dodge Omni 024 with friends to a party, racing in a group of 4 other cars, going 105 at times. (not exactly a Vette or Lambo in brakes and suspension) Dumb. Flat out obtuse to the danger at the time, and we got lucky and nothing bad happened.
