You can get your liscense at the age of 16, younger if there is a special need. As for the legal age limit to drink it is 18, ONLY because thats the legal age of consent. the states are the ones that set these limits. The reason that all 50 states adopted this policy is because the federal government brided them. How this happened was with congress going to the states and telling them to either adopt this age limit or they would cut money away from that states federal highway money. Sounds awful but it happens a lot here, its a way for the federal government to get states to pass something that is only the states have authority over.
