My boyfriend is 17 and can drive, but my parents wont let me drive with him?

I live an hour away from him now and our relationship is fine but my parents won't let him come pick me up. It's ridiculous because they are coming at it from both sides of the fence, on one end they say he's too old (i'm 15) and then on the other end it's he's too young to drive responsibly. He got his permit the day he turned 16 and has been driving with his license for 8 months. How do I convince them to let him pick me up?
