Some people think that the best way to improve road safety is to increase the min legal age for driving a car or motorbike.To what extent do you agree/disagree
In today's world, some believe that
governments
ought to raise the age
limit for driving licenses in both motorcycles and cars to decrease the number of crashes on the road. In my opinion, I do not agree with the statement since governments
should increase punishments
for traffic
and give education as early as possible.
First and foremost, the age
of 18 is quite enough to decide about something such
as choosing a president or driving legally. Therefore
, to solve road safety problems, increasing the age
limit is not a permanent solution. There are more efficient solutions ,for example
, governments
should give lectures to increase public awareness about traffic
and give them when they are young like their middle school ages. In this
way, children have information about good pedestrian behaviours and also
will know their social responsibilities towards other drivers in traffic
.
Moreover
, drivers can do whatever they want, if punishments
are not deterred. Hence
, governments
should rise the price or more crucial punishments
. For example
, if the driver drifted on a public road or used loud exhaust, in these circumstances, authorities should give expensive punishments
. However
, if drivers races in the streets, governments
should cancel this
person' license. In this
way, these kinds of individuals can not drive anymore because of harsh penalties.
To sum up
, considering everything that has been stated so far, although
some think that the suitable age
for driving should increase to develop traffic
safety, I do not agree with this
situation as it is not enough and there are more permanent solutions which are rising punishments
and giving education at a young age
