California teenagers are safer without teen passengers in the car

When I first got my California driver license as a 16-year-old, I was frustrated by the provisional license restrictions that make it illegal to drive anyone younger than 20 years old without a parent or legal guardian in the car. I figured, if the state of California trusts me to drive a car, why should they care who's in it? And, I thought, what's the point of saving up for a car and getting a license if you can't drive your friends around and have fun?
