I am praying for the family and friends of the deceased motorcyclist. I am curious. I thought you had to have a licensed driver with you to drive at the age of 16 yrs old? I’ve noticed some accidents are caused by a lot of teenage drivers that I didn’t think were old enough to drive a vehicle without an license adult driver. Not bashing, just curious. .
