Respected Sir,
Subject : Safer roads, safer life.
I wish to bring to your notice that there has been an enormous increase in road accidents. The reason being rash drivers and not proper traffic control. Nowadays people are getting driving licence easily. They are not trained properly for safe driving. The number of vehicles on the road has also increased leading to more traffic.
The impact of the modern transport is not very good for the environment. The transportation system creates air pollution and contributes to global warming. As you are aware, many environmentalists are asking for a transition from air and road to rail and human powered transport. There is a need to increase transport electrification and energy efficiency.
The negative impact on health is also a matter of concern. Recent studies have shown that noise and carbon monoxide emissions have direct and indirect effects which are harmful.
I will be very grateful, if you could promote awareness about these problems and work for the implementation of suitable measures to get rid of them.
Yours Sincerely
Rachita Tandon
