An unasked question about young drivers

Is there a relationship between the increasing restrictions imposed on teenage drivers, which have been going on for a decade or so, and the “trend pieces” that say millennials are not as interested in getting drivers’ licenses or driving cars as previous generations? Or is the latter part based on increased car prices, or the inability to peel them away from their screens?

Or is there no correlation between any of the above at all?

As someone on the leading edge of the “millennial generation”, I have thought for a while now that it is too large in scope. The very fast changes in technology have a lot to do with that. There is a divide within the generation, not solely on age, but also on what you got first: a full-fledged driver’s license or a cell phone. (In addition, we’re reaching the point where the newest drivers are not millennials, but the generation after.)
