The correct answer is "a".

Teenagers whose age ranges between 15 and 19 years only account for 6.4 percent of the total driver population in the United States. However, they account for nearly 12% of the drivers involved in fatal accidents. This represents $13.6 billion (8,4%) of the total cost that represents the treatment of car injuries.


Answer:

a. Fifteen to twenty

Explanation:

In the United States, people need to get a driver's license to be able to drive their cars and the minimum age to get a restricted license is between 15 and 17 years old depending on the state laws. The group between 15 and 20 years old represent 6.4% of the total number of drivers and they made up 12 percent of all drivers involved in fatal crashes and these accidents has become the major cause of death for this group which is affected by the little driving experience people at this age have. Also, in some cases teenagers show a reckless behavior driving cars without a valid driver's license or without enough driving skills.
