What are the advantages of using OOP (Object-Oriented Programming) in PHP, and how can beginners effectively implement it in their scripts?

Using OOP in PHP allows for better organization of code, easier maintenance, and reusability of code. Beginners can effectively implement OOP in their scripts by creating classes to represent objects, defining properties and methods within those classes, and then creating instances of those classes to work with in their scripts. 

// Example of implementing OOP in PHP
class Car {
    public $color;
    public $brand;

    public function __construct($color, $brand) {
        $this->color = $color;
        $this->brand = $brand;
    }

    public function startEngine() {
        echo "The $this->brand car with $this->color color has started the engine.";
    }
}

$myCar = new Car("red", "Toyota");
$myCar->startEngine();
