due to

the benefits it brings

as reducing the number of accidents or promoting awareness of updated rules, I still firmly disagree with it
due to

the inconvenience for experienced drivers and more cost and time-consuming. On the one hand, those who agree with

view may have several arguments. First of all, there are many accidents caused by vehicle issues like monitor and car wheels or the complacency and subjectivity of drivers, so the examination can provide help to maintain good driving habits and reduce risk when arriving. Another possible argument is that frequent tests ensure that

instead

On the other hand

view for several reasons. Chief among these is that the annual driving test is less effective for

who are experienced with transportation for a long time and comply with traffic laws, so it could be more time-consuming and costly for them.
For example

and those with previous violations. Meanwhile, there are many different solutions to address the risks of road safety, namely imposing higher penalties on offenders, or raising the requirements of drivers in terms of physical health. In conclusion, it is understandable why some may argue that driving tests each year is the best way for road safety.
Nevertheless
