Legal

In North Carolina, 7 kids died when their car crashed at a speed between 85 and 100mph. The driver was 15 and not one kid had their liscense.

Got me thinking...what is the legal age to drive where you are?
Drink beer/wine?
Drink liquor?
Be considered able to consent to sex?
Vote?

Age to drive ~ 17


Age to drink (anything) ~ 18


Age of consent (to sex) ~ 16

Re: Legal

drive? - It was 17 when I got my licence but now there's all this complicated driving grade crap that I don't understand

Drink beer/wine? 18

Drink liquor? 18

Be considered able to consent to sex? 16, I believe

Vote? 18

(Is there a difference between beer and liquor ages in some places?)

Re: Legal

Legal age to drive

Learners Licence: 16yrs & 6months

Provisional Licence: Must have held a Learners Licence for a minimum of 6months in the last 2 yrs

Open Licence: Under 23 years of age - held a provisional licence for at least three years
23 years but not 24 years of age - held a provisional licence for at least two years
24 years of age and above - held a provisional licence for at least one year

Drink beer/wine?

18

Drink liquor?

18

Be considered able to consent to sex?

Sex with someone of the opposite sex (heterosexual sex) is legal once you are both over 16.

It is a criminal offence for any male to have sex with a female who is under 16. This means that if a boy has sex with a girl under 16, he is breaking the law, even if the girl agrees to have sex with him.

There is no age limit for boys, which means that a boy of any age can legally have sex with a girl as long as she is over 16.

However, it is a criminal offence for anyone under 18 to have anal intercourse, whether it is between a male and a female, or between two people of the same sex.

Vote?

18

I've been driving for just over 3 years now, and I've had 2 small accidents, thankfully not due to alchohol. I never drink and drive. Driving might be important but drink always isn't.

In Texas here is how it breaks down.

Got me thinking...what is the legal age to drive where you are?

18, but with driver's ed and proof you are still in school it is 16, and 14 is possible for a hardship liecense.

Drink beer/wine? Drink liquor?

21 because the Nazi's in the government think you are old enough to die in a pool of your own blood in Iraq at 18, but you can't drink.

Be considered able to consent to sex?

17 and I did have to research it once jsut to make sure I wasn't going to jail. Also there is no four years rule. i.e: You cna be 80 y/o and go around sodomizing consenting 17 y/o girls (and boys now too thanks Supreme Court) and no one can say shit! However if you are 18 and you get caught eating out your 16 y/o girlfriend, then you are going to be sodomized in jail, child molestor!

On a related note, the Mann Act effectively sets a national age of consent at 16, but it is 18 if you leave the U.S.

Vote?

18 just like it is everywhere else in the U.S.

driving- 16 to qualify for a beginner's and then there is a graduated system that will give you a G-3 license in three years.

drinking alcohol-19

consent to sex-14......anal sex 19
So a 14 year old can have sex with anyone of any age except anal sex.

Vote-18 or 19 ???

Legal age you can drive is 16, but you have a temp license until you are 18 then you get a full license... some kind of graduated "earn your license" thing. However, you can get what is called a school permit at the age of 14, which can only be used to drive back and forth from home to school/school activities.

Legal age you can drink both hard liquor and beer - 21

Legal age to vote 18

Legal to have sex..... well that is a totally different matter... I have included a link here - if anyone is so inclinded...

http://www.ageofconsent.com/iowa.htm

It is very confusing... depends upon your age, gender, what the definition of a child is and there are different circumstances in which different definitions apply ..... sheesh - we always said anything under 18 was jailbait.... you know 16 will get ya 20???? From what I understand from this, you can be 12 years of age and still be ok for sex if the person is up to 5 years older than you... so if you are 13, you can have sex with an 18 year old!!!

But..... there is another area in the Iowa Code that gives parents the power to press charges against someone who has had sex with your under 18 year old - male or female - if that person is older than 18!!! Confusing!!!!!!!!!!!!

In addition to that - (isn't there always something?) If you allow your under 18 kid to have sex with someone who is 5 years older, the state can charge the parents with child abandoment and abuse!!!!

You can also emancipate your child at the age of 16 in Iowa...

OMG!!!! My head is spinning!

I'm in farm country.....and so the legal age to drive if your parents (or family) work a farm is 16.....but it's a learner's permit and you have to have a licensed driver with you at all times on the road (on the farm it don't matter)...at age 17 you receive a "Cinderella license"......in which you cannot drive on the road after midnight (or whatever curfew is now-a-days). And at 18 a full fledged license.

Legal age to drink beer/wine/liquor (it's all alcohol...a drug.....sinful...whatever they are calling it now-a-days).......21.....no exceptions......and it's 18 to buy smokes (just a bit of FYI.....I'm 45 and still get carded for cigs sometimes.....it's really strange.....but flattering.....and startling to the person who cards me).

Age of sexual consent.......16 (m/f)......but as I said...I live in a really rural area and who knows who's doing what with who??!!!

Vote......18

Lil? You didn't mention.........were the kids tested for alcohol...and were they drunk or just on a joy ride? (some f'in joy!!!!????) Any survivors......or was there just the seven of them? What did they hit? And did they hurt anyone else?

Sorry......it's one of those....I need to know but I really don't wanna......things!

*sigh*

driving depeds here... i think its 16 u can get a learners permit.. and you gotta hold it for 12months before a provisional and then its like 6 months after that for a license..

USA every state is 21 for ANY alcohol

18 for tobacco products

consensual sex in the US has new laws.. its like for those 14+ for consented sex it is 2 years.. meaning a 14yr F can have consented sex with up to a 16yr old M legally... nothing younger.. and at 16 its 4 yrs consented sex... meaning a 16yr F can have sex with a 20yr M legally and same goes for males... (at least thats what im told by my state trooper friend, its good to know the technicalities when your 18 and live in the party scene)

vote 18

Military 18
