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.

Road casualties take the lives of many chauffeurs and pedestrians every year. Some argue that the best way to reduce them is to have severe penalties for offending freight regulations,

other measures should be taken alongside them. On the one hand, careless operators who ignore freight laws play a major role in many arteries accidents.

For example

, some use their mobile phones

while

driving and do not focus on the line, meaning they would definitely not be able to control their cars in time to avoid
