From the Paper:

"The Country Road: "14 percent of all deaths due to motor vehicle accidents are teen drivers" (Teens Driving Fatality Statistics, 2005). Most teenagers look forward to obtaining their drivers license and most teenagers are warned about the above statistic at least a dozen times or more. From the time I had turned fourteen I dreamed of owning my own car and driving my friends around town in a cool car with the radio blasting. It would be great! From dreams at night to day dreams at school I could see myself behind the wheel of my own car that was polished and shone with sun-rays. I was ready to turn sixteen and pass my drivers test so I could drive my dream automobile. My dream car was a white Plymouth Surefire. It was a small compact automobile."
