Most people believe that stricter punishment should be given for traffic offences. To what extent do you agree?

There is a hot debate over whether stricter

punishment

should be given for breaking

traffic

rules or not. In my opinion, harsh

punishment

is not the solution in all the cases, it varies from

case

to

case

, as severity of

traffic

offence

and age of the

driver

should be considered before deciding the

punishment

.

First point

Suggestion

The first point

to consider here is the kind of

traffic

offence

, if it is life threatening

offence

Suggestion

offensively

like

hit

Suggestion

a hit

and run, and drunk and drive,

then

in that

case

punishment

like imprisonment with or without heavy fine is necessary. When they know the consequences of their careless actions, they would be more careful and serious while driving on

road

.

Secondly

, if the

traffic

offence

is minor and does not have potential impact on anyone

else

Accept comma addition

else, then

then

a warning to

first

timers and

appropriate fine

Suggestion

appropriate fines

an appropriate fine

on multiple occurrence should be given.

For instance

, if rules like speeding, not wearing seatbelt and parking in no parking zone

are broken

Suggestion

is broken, then

is broken then

then

ticket with a fine should be charged.

Furthermore

, if the same incident happens again and

again

Accept comma addition

again, then

then

driving license

driver

should be revoked for a week or so.

This

would result in decrease in

such

incidents.

In addition

to the above two points, the other major thing to consider is the age of the

driver

. If

driver

Suggestion

the driver

a driver

is young or teenage

then

the government should make a rule of attending Defensive Driving Classes mandatory, which will help the young drivers to learn about the importance of adhering to

traffic

rules on

road

Suggestion

the road

.

For example

, young people are more addictive to phone, they do text and call while driving more often. These classes will teach them about the consequence of all

such

activities and help them in becoming

good

Suggestion

a good driver

driver

. From what

have been discussed

Suggestion

has been discussed

in

above points

Suggestion

the above points

, in conclusion, having stricter

punishment

for all

traffic

offences is not necessary. Each

case

should be treated differently based upon the kind of incident and age of

driver

.
