I used 43 minutes on this essay.
since it was under pressure, I didn't figure out better solutions on reducing car accidents. I just talked about education and didn't give an example.
please review my essay.
Some people think that strict punishments for driving offences are the key to reducing traffic accidents. Others, however, believe that other measures should be more effective in improving road safety.
Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.
In recent years, there is a dramatic increase on car accidents all over the world, and it has become one of the leading causes of mortality. People have different views on what is the best solution to reduce road accident and improve road safety. While some people believe that stiff punishment is the most effective measure to tackle this problem, I believe that there are other equally important solutions.
To begin with, it is agreed that tough penalty has a deterring effect on these potential driving offenders and, therefore can reduce road accidents. To take China as an example, 2 years ago, Chinese government enacted a new drunk driving law which changed the definition of drunk driving from civil law offence to criminal law offence. After this new low taking effect, there is a significant drop on the number of car accidents across the country. From this example, it is clear that stiff punishment is a highly effective solution to the increasingly serious road safety problem.
However, besides punishment, I believe that there are other measures that can be taken in handling this problem. One important solution would be educating drivers and children on the importance of driving safely. Many drivers do not know how risk it could be to drive under influence and to drive over speed. Showing them the numbers of victims and pictures of accident scenes could let them drive more cautiously in the future. More importantly, such kind of education could be more effective on children, who will be future drivers. They could be less likely to offend traffic laws if they are educated about the consequence of car accidents at a young age.
To conclude, from my perspective, tough penalty is an effective way to reduce car accidents, but other solutions like education are of the same importance.
