The best way to reduce the number of traffic accidents is to raise the age limit for younger drivers and to lower the age limit for elderly ones. Do you agree or disagree?

Many people hold the opinion that road accidents could be reduced by increasing the

age

limit for young drivers and decreasing the

age

limit for old drivers

however

others who disagree with

this

opinion would prefer stringent driving rules and regulation changes to avoid

such

incidents. Voices who are not in favour of changing the upper and lower

age

limits for driving would prefer other alternative methods to combat the situation of a traffic-related mishap.

In particular

, introducing a harder driving test that ensures that the student is required to score a hundred per cent on all the varying parameters would encourage them to practice

further

and gain more experience before appearing for the final test.

In addition

, the student learning permit should include additional restrictions and tracking to make sure that they are abiding by all the rules and regulations.

For instance

, it has been observed that most road incidents primarily occur due to negligent and reckless driving, driving under the influence of alcohol, over speeding or using cell phones while driving

such

situations should be avoided by introducing strict rules and all traffic offenders licence should be cancelled on the spot and strict monetary fines should be imposed to overcome

this

problem. On the other side, I agree with the opinion that re-introducing the lower and upper limits for driving license could help potentially to reduce the number of traffic accidents. Learning permits for students should be extended for another couple of years which may allow young drivers to drive under the vigilance of an adult and

furthermore

reducing the chances of fatal road incidents.

Moreover

, sometimes elderly people happen to face a plethora of health issues

such

as dementia which may lead to reduce their response times in a critical position where a sudden break is required to avoid a potential accident

therefore

it is necessary to put a cap on the upper old

age

limit to mitigate a hazardous situation.

For example

, it was recently published in the news that a famous elderly personality, who is around ninety years was involved in an accident so

such

situations can be avoided with the introduction of a new upper

age

ceiling. To sum up, introducing the upper and lower

age

limits for driving and strict laws against traffic offenders would help to curb the grim situation of traffic-related accidents and save many innocent lives.
