Well the article does include the debate.
But, they're saying that New Jersey, where the minimum for a license is 17, has a lower fatality rate among teens than Connecticut, where the minimum is 16 years and 4 months.
My assumption with New Jersey is that you do not need to be 17 in order to get a driving permit - so either way they'd (potentially) have a year of experience with driving at 17 anyway.
I got my permit the day I turned 16. I got my license a month after my 17th birthday. Just a random fact about myself thrown in there for good measure.
