Some people think that the most effective way to increase road safety is to increase the minimum legal age, for driving cars or riding motorbikes. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

It is widely said that the most effective way to boost the

safety

of

road system

Suggestion

the road system

is raising the legal

age

in using some vehicles

such

as cars and motorbikes. In my opinion, I totally disagree with

this

viewpoint due to many reasons. On the one hand, it is undeniable that the application of the least legal

age

permitted

using

Suggestion

to use

cars and motorbikes has certain benefits.

Firstly

, when the authorities raise the legal

age

in controlling these kinds of means, a greater number of citizens have the awareness of using them, which helps transportation system restrict significantly accidents.

For instance

, in Vietnam, while the Prime Minister, Nguyen Xuan Phuc, is more and more proposing a wide range of monetary punishment on car and motorbike users who do not comply the transportation rule,

this

decreases considerably a lot of serious accidents caused by users not bringing helmet.

Secondly

, with the increased legal

age

of drivers and riders, these days, many young children, particularly students who are under 18, can not

using

Suggestion

use

these types of means, especially motorbikes comfortably like they used to.

Therefore

, the roads around school areas may not have to encounter a high traffic density at peak hours, which leads to the

safety

not only for these areas but

also

for students.

On the other hand

, I believe that

this

is not the best solution because there is another one is better.

First

of all, because many parents in society, nowadays, have to allocate the large amount of time

for

Suggestion

in

their hectic life, they could not have enough much time for picking up their offspring whenever they have finished at school.

Hence

, when the governments enact

this

measure, several other problems will arise significantly, especially, the movement of school children in households.

Second

of all, rather than doing that, to raise the

safety

of

road system

Suggestion

the road system

, the authorities can encourage residents to use public transit more

such

as bus and train.

For example

, the local authorities may subsidize for the cost of buses, which would cause the inhabitants to use buses commonly

for

Suggestion

to

daily move to their workplace;

therefore

,

this

reduces serious traffic congestion in the main streets and ensure the road

safety

considerably. In conclusion, the higher legal

age

of people allowed to use cars and motorbikes may have a number of beneficial effects, but I am of the opinion that it is not the best option.
