This is an argument essay Introduction Body paragraph 1,2,3 Counterargument/refutation conclusion Topic NY state currently has a graduated license law that impacts young drivers on Long Island. There are restrictions on the age and locations where people of a certain age can drive. There are no restrictions currently in effect for older drivers. Consider the idea of age restrictions on a driver’s license. Do you support age restrictions or are you against them? Explain your opinion in a well-developed essay on the topic. MAKE SURE YOU MENTION the age group(s) you are considering when you write your essay. Develop a DIRECT thesis statement about why (or why not) these restrictions should be in place and support it in your essay. Remember to include a counterargument/refutation in this 6 paragraph essay.Here is a link to the NY Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) website page on the topic of graduated licenses. https://dmv.ny.gov/younger-driver/graduated-license-law-and-restrictions-drivers-under-18 Keep in mind that every paragraph requires a minimum of 5 sentences: topic sentence, minimum of 3 support sentences, and a conclusion sentence. That level of effort will earn you “competent” points. You need more than the minimum if you want a “proficient” score. Don’t forget an original title that is not just the topic! Your hook should be the “regular” kind you used in compare/contrast and cause/effect essays. Feel free to support your argument with information from articles, websites, etc. If you choose to do this, make sure you mention the source in your writing.
