It has been said that the minimum legal
age
Use synonyms
for driving and riding should be increased so as to improve
road
Use synonyms
safety. Personally, I firmly disagree with
this
Linking Words
idea for two main reasons.
To begin
Linking Words
with, in order to improve
road
Use synonyms
safety, we should emphasize people’s driving and riding skills rather than their
age
Use synonyms
. The main reason why there are thousands of traffic accidents is that because the driving tests are too simple, those who do not have standard techniques still qualify for driving licenses.
For instance
Linking Words
,
although
Linking Words
some teenagers do not have driving licenses, they drive well on the
road
Use synonyms
.
However
Linking Words
,some adults are not good at driving which leads to numerous driving accidents.
Consequently
Linking Words
,there is no doubt that young
age
Use synonyms
is not always the reason why
roads
Use synonyms
are unsafe and driving skills are the most essential part of
road
Use synonyms
security. The second reason is that a proper design of
roads
Use synonyms
is more essential than people’s driving
age
Use synonyms
. When the
roads
Use synonyms
are designed in a strange way,
although
Linking Words
people follow them properly, they still will cause car accidents. Take, Taiwan,
for example
Linking Words
. Taiwan is regarded as a “pedestrian hell” by BBC
due to
Linking Words
the fact that pedestrians have to walk closely with vehicles as the government did not design
roads
Use synonyms
which are suitable for every
road
Use synonyms
user. In conclusion, designing good
roads
Use synonyms
for users is far more important than increasing the minimum
age
Use synonyms
for driving. To summarize, as far as I am concerned, I disagree with the idea of rising the legal
age
Use synonyms
for driving and riding is not useful to improve
road
Use synonyms
security for two major reasons.
Firstly
Linking Words
,training the public’s driving skills before they get their licenses is more effective to improve
road
Use synonyms
security.
Secondly
Linking Words
, planning out
roads

which are suitable for every
road

user is
also

a key point to help the improvement of
road

safety.
