Some people think that strict punishment for driving offences are the key to reducing traffic accidents. Others, however ,believe that other measures would be more effective in improving road safety. Discuss both view and give your own opinion.

road safety. In my opinion, I wholeheartedly claim that serious penalties are more reasonable solutions to reduce
this
trend than having better
measures
. On the one hand, it is true that having strong punishments like

As a result

are at a low level.
Besides
, the drivers will become more disciplined and alert.
On the other hand

Furthermore
, they can give drivers significant educations about

, as well as

when driving. Those can ameliorate the drivers’ knowledge.
Nevertheless
, it will be boring if it is only taught without any demonstration. To exemplify, Myanmar, which is included in one of

Support ideas with relevant, specific examples

Examples make your writing easier to understand by illustrating points more effectively.

Examples, if used properly, not only help you get higher marks for ‘Task Response’ but also for ‘Coherence’.

When giving examples it is best to put them after your main idea or topic sentence. They can be used in the middle of supporting sentences or they can be used to start a new sentence. There is no rule for where exactly to give examples in essays, logically they would come after your main idea/topic sentence or just after a supporting sentence.

Linking words for giving examples:

  • for example
  • for instance
  • to illustrate this
  • to give a clear example
  • such as
  • namely
  • to illustrate
  • take, for example
