Some people think that strict punishments 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 these views and give your own opinion.

It is the case that people have different views on how to keep our roads safe.

. When dangerous drivers make transportation crimes, the heavy penalties cause them to remember the mistake longer, resulting in driving carefully in later times. In fact, punishment can be served as a deterrent to people.

For example

, there are some penalties

such

as small fines, license suspension, driving courses, and even prison sentences. The aim of these helps drivers be more disciplined and alert when driving.

On the other hand

, I

also

argue that there are other solutions that can be used for road safety.

Firstly

, the main measure is to raise people’s awareness of driving carefully.

For instance

, courses on safe driving should be offered to students in schools, or programs on how to drive safely might be shown more popular on social media.

Secondly

, governments should put more the pano, road direction along roads.

As a result

, people are reminded often, and they may be mindful in their driving.

Finally

, national authorities

also

pay attention to building and maintaining transport facilities, which increases the safety and comfort of

. In conclusion, in my view, both punishments and a range of other measures can be used together to promote better driving habits.
