I'm not sure if the driving age is still 14 but at one time (I live near the state line) it's wasn't unusual to see a car loads of teenies driving around the the beach towns. South Carolina used to be a wide open place, sex at 10 or 11, drive at 14, buy a judge seat, no law experience necessary, or for sheriff as well. The last couple of decades they've cleaned it up a little bit, I think a judgeship is still pretty expensive but age of consent is higher, 12 or so No, really i think they are in line with the rest of the nation now.
