Many of the driving laws in the United States vary from state to state, but I think it is important that we see a unity in the rules of the road. If one state allows a full license at age 16, this law should be carried over to the all other states. Of course teens should be thoroughly tested before receiving a driving license of any kind. A suggestion that would help both the law and teens would be to test teens at age 16, but at a high level of expertise.
The offense of resisting an arrest, detention or stop in violation of subdivision (1) or (2) of subsection 1 of this section is a class A misdemeanor, unless the person fleeing creates a substantial risk of serious physical injury or death to any person, in which case it is a class E felony. 575.150.
Popular depictions of arrest differ significantly from legal understandings. When an arrest occurs in popular culture (often arrest is not necessary because deadly force was used by the police officer), it is usually after a high-speed chase or pursuit, the suspect resists the arrest, and then the officer reads the suspect his or her Miranda rights. In practice, such situations rarely occur, and a person is usually arrested after agreeing to be questioned by police officers.
