Never mind that the driving age in Europe is 18 instead of 16, not to mention that a car is so much more expensive to own and public transportation is so much more useful that most teens don't drive anyway.

The reason Europe is safer for teen drivers is that there are a ton less teen drivers, not their rules on alcohol.
