Time after time, studies show that requiring teenagers to complete at least 12 hours of classroom driver's education significantly cuts down on automobile accident rates for younger drivers. Not only do these classes turn students into better drivers, but they also keep more careless drivers from obtaining their licenses. After all, if a teenager is unwilling to complete the course, then he or she is not eligible for a driver's license. This self- selection process alone will significantly improve road safety by keeping more careless young people off the road if the state legislature votes to require driver's education for all teenage drivers.
Careless teenagers will not simply choose to drive without a valid driver's license.

1. The Road Safety Advocate makes an argument that requiring young drivers to complete a driver's education class will keep more careless young people off the road. Based on the information given, which of the following is an assumption that is required by the argument made by the Road Safety Advocate?
| Driver's education classes can benefit adults as well as younger drivers. | |
| Teenagers who enroll in a driver's education class for at least 12 hours are, on average, 20% less likely to be involved in a serious accident than those who take no driver's education class. | |
| Young drivers are significantly more likely to be involved in a serious accident than adults who have at least 10 years of driving experience. | |
| Careless teenagers will not simply choose to drive without a valid driver's license. | |
| The requirements of most driver's education classes are not so difficult as to make it unreasonably difficult to pass the class. |

Careless teenagers will not simply choose to drive without a valid driver's license.
Recent studies have shown that the total number of years of driving experience has a stronger correlation to driving competence than age.
