Some experts suggested that cyclists should have to pass a exam before riding on cycle for road safety. To what extended do you agree or disagree?

#experts #cyclists #exam #cycle #road #safety
Introducing a law for cycling has always been controversial and raised so many questions, one of which is whether cyclists should be obliged to take a test to be allowed to ride on public
roads
 or not. Some
people
, including me, are of the opinion that taking
such
tests
 is absolutely necessary and reasonable. One reason for which I believe that taking
such
tests
 is essential lies in the fact that bicycles, like any other vehicles, are the means of transport, and the
people
 riding them should prove themselves to be skilful enough not to increase
road
 crashes. Since
road
 accidents are the leading cause of death worldwide, strict control over who should be allowed to ride a bicycle on the
road
 seems entirely justified.
This
 high volume of
road
 accidents can be prevented and controlled by assessing riders’ biking skills. Another reason that taking
such
tests
 of cyclists is reasonable is that it enables the government to apply for a cycling license.
For example
,
people
 with driving criminal records are more likely to cause chaos on the
roads
 when cycling; and issuing licenses for these
people
 should be stricter. Another example is the age groups under the legal age. These age groups should never be issued with a cycling license because even if they cause havoc on
roads
, they cannot be held responsible for what they have done. To conclude, I completely agree with the notion of taking some
tests
 of cyclists before letting them drive on the public
roads
. It simply helps make
roads
 safer by screening which, in the
first
 place, are eligible to take the
tests
 and by issuing a license for only those passing the
tests
 successfully.
