TASK 2. THE ONLY WAY TO IMPROVE SAFETY OF OUR ROADS IS TO GIVE MUCH STRICTER PUNISHMENTS FOR DRIVING OFFENCES. WHAT EXTENT DO YOU AGREE OF DISAGREE.
Many people argue that the optimal method of making roadways more secure is to set more severe retribution for driving offences. Although I agree with this ideal, there are also other measures that can reduce the number of accidents.
On the one hand, giving much stricter punishments is beneficial to grow road safety. Almost accidents are completely caused by driving offences such as driving while intoxicated or speeding. Therefore , the local or national authorities must imposing more rigid penalty on them. As a result, when they would abide by law because of feeling afraid of consequences of the violation of traffic laws, it would deter them from committing more driving offences and reduce a number of driving accidents.
On the other hand, there are already severe retribution for driving crime such as ceasing the driver license or monetary fine . Despite this, there was witness upward trend on a number of road accidents every year. This is the reason why I believe that the road safety could be ensured by combination of other initiatives. Firstly, by using campaign in media, in school, in global places could make people realize the critical impact of traffic accidents on our life. It would increase publish awareness about road safety and establish the better driving habits. Secondly, the government should provide funding to upgrade and expand publish transport provision to encourage inhabitants using transport instead of private vehicle. This would help to reduce traffic on road and make the roads safer. Finally, local authorities must install speed cameras to limit the speed at which vehicles are allowed to travel.
In conclusion, giving stricter punishment is a wise way to improve safety of our roads but combination of other steps would bring more effective results.
