You see the problem then Dwight and you're correct about many of them not even bothering to get a regular driver's license. Every kid I knew was at the DMV on their 16th birthday getting their license (freedom) as soon as possible. Years ago my daughter took her drivers test with our old Jeep Wrangler, her first car. She said the other kids in her class were amazed that she could drive a manual transmission much less learn to drive on one.
I know someone who just bought her 17 year old son a very clean one owner 2006 Mustang GT (automatic of course) in the hopes that it will encourage him to get off his ass and get his driver's license! This is the mentality of the generation that motorcycle manufacturers are trying to sell new bikes to. Seems pretty bleak. I guess their reality are computer games or something.
