In many places, people think that increasing the legal
age

of drivers is the best way to improve
road
Use synonyms
safety.
However
Linking Words
, legal
age
Use synonyms
maximization may help to some extent, and I feel that some other measures could be much more effective. The
first
Linking Words
reason why the
age
Use synonyms
extension for drivers is not the best solution is the stringent laws. What do I mean by
that is
Linking Words
when there are strict laws for everyone, regardless of
age
Use synonyms
barrier, people might be serious in that case.
For example
Linking Words
, in many countries, there are speed cameras on different roads, and huge fines imposed on the offenders even could be a suspension of the legal license.
Although
Linking Words
some might argue that young people are less mature and
hence
Linking Words
highly likely to break the traffic law, I would counter
this
Linking Words
by saying that when the strict rules are there, it is the same for everyone and as long as people are getting
punishment

, they will be serious
next

time. It is,
therefore
Linking Words
, not surprising to claim that
age
Use synonyms
barrier alone is not the best way to avoid accidents. Another option could be to increase public transportation availability. When there is
more cheap

and affordable public
transport
Use synonyms
, people will go for public
transport
Use synonyms
rather than a private vehicle. By doing
this
Linking Words
, fewer vehicles will be on the
road

and
hence
Linking Words
a safe
road

for all.
For instance
Linking Words
, in many
megacities
Suggestion
already public buses are cheap to afford in the city circle to avoid accidents. If public
transport

is not available, people prone to go for a private vehicle and more chances for accidents. In conclusion, not only is stricter laws help to increase
road

safety but
also

public
transport

make

the

safer for everyone.
Therefore
Linking Words
, despite the fact that others feel that
age

restriction is the best solution to avoid accidents, I feel that other measures are more important.
