Support for a new piece of legislation grew with the Obama administration on Tuesday. The Safe Teen and Novice Driver Uniform Protection Act, if passed, requires a more restrictions on teen driving which would force Michigan and other states, to change their laws. If Michigan does not change its laws, it would lose highway funding. This law requires three stages of licensing and drivers would not have unrestricted driving until they turned 18. Michigan's law, passed in 1997, allows 17 year olds to have unrestricted licenses if they meet certain requirements.
