No because that would mean more drinking!
It seems unlikely, as they'd lose federal highway funding if they lowered it. They could, I suppose, raise it, but this also seems unlikely.
26th Amendment
The legal drinking age in Alabama had been lowered to 19. I know because I hit 19 in 1975 and was finally, at that time, "legal". It was later raised back up to 21, but anyone who had already hit the legal drinking age of 19 (before it was raised back to 21) was still considered "legal" even if they weren't 21 yet.
There have been many conflictions as to what the legal drinking age. It all has to do with maturity, physically and mentally. The amount of time it takes to fully physically mature is 21 years. This is why USA has a drinking age is 21. But the mental maturity is totally different. The problem with alcohol is today's teenagers abusing alcohol. Mental maturity can be reached from anywhere between 16 and 28 years of age, depending on the person. Some people may never mature. Teenagers should, however, have the right to experiment. That is why the drinking age should be 16-18 for low alcoholic drinks, and older (21-25) for drinks with high alcoholic content. Health wise, to avoid brain or any other damage resulting from alcohol in later life, the drinking age should be 21, when the body is fully matured and able to cope with alcohol.
