At 17 you can drive a car yet you can't vote. It seems like you're allowed to play the game, but have no control over the rules?

At 17 society trusts you enough to operate a moving vehicle on a motorway but doesn't trust you enough to make decisions about the country you live in.

While you can't vote at 17, you can still be highly influential in bringing about change.

By joining a pressure group you can lobby the government on a number of important issues, ranging from drugs to war. Or, if you feel strongly enough, you can start a campaign yourself and make radical changes from the ground up. Have your say and be heard.
