It is widely said that raising the minimum legal age for driving cars and motorbikes

has been the most effective way to increase road safety. While I agree with this
point of view to a certain extent, age might not be the only influential factor due to
the fact that there are other ways to foster road safety.

It is understandable that proponents of raising the minimum legal age believe that
young people might somehow be prone to road accidents because of their lack of
experience in driving safely. However, this thinking is flawed because, regardless
of age, not all individuals have an awareness of traffic laws. Thus, the authorities
should consider additional approaches for tackling this issue.

To reinforce my viewpoint, there are more comprehensive measures to enhace road


safety. First, it is highly advisable for the authorities to implement improvements in
driving courses. These driving courses that equips learners with knowledge
including driving skill, an road safety awareness and a responsibility before they
begin using traffic transportations encourage individuals at all ages to drive more
safely. Second, stricter enforcement and severe penalties for unsafe behaviors
while driving, such as driving at a high speed or driving under the influence, are
likely to be more impactful in raising road safety. This forces citizens to obey
traffic laws, such as following the traffic lights or driving cars at a reasonable
speed, leading to a decline in road accidents.

In conclusion, although minimizing the legal age for driving cars and riding
motorbikes is likely to improve traffic safety, I strongly believe that two holistic
approaches, including fostering the quality of driving courses and providing severe
penalties, can be more effective in creating a safer traffic environment for
everyone.
