People believe that in order to reduce road accidents it should be mandatory for drivers to retake the driving test every 3 years. Do you agree or disagree with the above statement?

There is no doubt that

road

accidents have increased in vast numbers across the globe. Some people are of the opinion that recurring the driving test of the drivers after every quarter of the year will help minimize

road

accidents.

However

, I completely disagree with the above statement and believe that

road

infrastructure should be improved and people should follow traffic rules to reduce these accidents.

To begin

with, there are many highways in most of the developing countries with maximum speed of 50 kilometres per hour, which have big potholes and the

road

surfaces are unevenly constructed that makes it difficult to control vehicles.

Hence

, the condition of the roads sometimes gets worse during monsoon and sometimes rainy season.

As a result

, driving person met with an accident and

therefore

, results in a person’s death at the end.

For example

, according to a survey, more than 50% of the

road

accident occur due to bad roads or potholes. So, I think roads should be improved by the government.

Furthermore

, the other main reason of the

road

accidents are absence of the strict traffic rules.

Firstly

, most of the drivers do not obey traffic rules, as there are no much fine for disobeying rules.

For example

, if a driver is driving 70 kilometres per hour in the zone of 50, he/she can escape easily by paying small amount of fine.

On the other hand

, pedestrians in most of the cases, do not cross the roads through the zebra crossing which led to increase in

road

accidents. For

this

reason, I believe that government should some strict rules. To conclude, to handle

this

issue of increasing in

road

accidents, the government should be working on progress of

road

infrastructure and impose strict laws, rather than making it compulsory to take retests after every 3 years.
