Some people think that the best 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 ?

Few people are of the opinion that, increasing the legal age limit of driving cars and motorbikes is the good way to enhance road

safety

. But in my point of view, we need to focus on improving roadway infrastructure and create awareness about traffic regulation in order to ensure the

safety

of travellers.

Firstly

of Transportation.

For instance

, even in suburban cities like Thane and Kalyan, there are many pocket areas where there are no concrete roads,

this

leads to potholes on the lanes resulting in accidents. As per reports published by roadway and railway ,authorities 75% of newly constructed highways and city lanes are not fit for vehicular movement since they don't meet international quality standards of

safety

.

Hence

For example

, while driving from Mumbai to Pune on the expressway, I could observe every fourth vehicle breaking the lane order while overtaking other vehicles and not following the speed limit too. These guidelines are not only broken by passenger vehicles but

also

by heavy vehicles like Trucks and Tempos resulting in daily 10 - 12 deadly mishaps as per the Ministry of Transportation of India.

Therefore

, it is necessary to teach drivers about protocols
