#people #punishment #traffic #offences
The increase in the number of accidents on roads has become a major concern. Many people believe that strict punishments should be given for violation of
traffic
 rules. I partially agree with
this
 statement. According to my view, some other measures should
also
 be taken along with strict punishment to eradicate

 offences.
To begin
 with, our law already had some well-defined rules and penalties for minor mistakes and cancellation of licenses for major offences. Imprisonment is
also
 given for serious accidents.
For instance
, the Indian government has imposed a strict penalty on people who drink and drive. The outcome of
this
 act is tremendous. The new rules of the Tamil Nadu government for non helmet wearers have shown a huge impact on
traffic
 offenders. A person who violates
traffic
 rules more than 3 times will be fined double the amount of money that has to be paid

 number of offenders, many people still violate the

fines
. One is by educating people about
traffic
 laws. Many people do not have proper knowledge about the pros and cons of
traffic
. The government should take

 to provide awareness campaigns about road safety and law. Another measure is installing surveillance cameras on the road. People follow the
traffic
 rules to avoid being caught in the surveillance camera.
Finally
, the driving license should only be provided to people who have undertaken training and completed the driving test.
This
 not the case in all countries where some aspirants bribe the officials and get a license issued to them. Considering all the arguments, I conclude that strict punishments alone cannot control

. Some other measures must

 be taken to reduce road accidents.
