Topic: Some people think that the best way to improve road safety is reducing the amount of maximum speed of vehicles. Others think that other ways exist. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.

reduce the speed and others think of some alternative ways
instead
of adopting the former one.
Therefore
, I will discuss both views in the subsequent paragraphs.
To begin
with, the major thing on the highway to control most of the hazards is to restrain the maximum speed. Interestingly, it has been noticed that everyone in

in a hurry to reach their destination quickly;
therefore
they forget about the restraint of speed they are expected to drive.
As a result
, they drive unconsciously by keeping the time of their work in mind
instead
of the safety of themselves and others.
However
, they should wake up early to reach on time at their designated location
instead
of speeding up and losing their

others' life.

On the other hand
, some people think of other alternatives to maintain lane safety. First and foremost one is to put restrictions on driving

road accidents can take place.
In addition
, the lane should be checked regularly to make sure there are not any uneven surfaces there which become an obstruction for people to drive safely.
For instance
, if a roadway requires repair
then
the construction should take place regularly to control the accidents.
Furthermore
, there must be restrictions on using cell phones
while
driving which distracts the driver from driving within the exact speed restriction. To illustrate, when a phone rings a person gets distracted to think for a

who is calling whether to pick a call or not which can cause an accident.
Therefore
, phones should be kept in the back seat for safe driving.
To conclude
, it is the responsibility of each individual to make their and other's life safe by driving within the maximum speed limit.
Moreover
, it is not possible to only reduce the maximum speed limit to reduce the chances of hazard but

Word Count

IELTS says that you should write a minimum of 250 words in writing task 2. If you go under word count you will lose marks in task response.

A very long essay will not give you a higher band score.

Aim for between 260 to 290 words in writing task 2. This will ensure a concise essay and will be realistic in terms of time management. You have only 40 minutes to write the essay and you need around 10 minutes of planning time, so you will not be able to write a long essay in 30 minutes.
