letter to editor to highlight the menace of driving by minors.

Answer 1

The News,
Lahore.
Sir,
Through the columns of your esteemed paper, I want to invite the attention of the authorities and the public to the problem of rash driving.
These days, road accidents have been on the increase. The main cause is rash and reckless driving. Buses start a race to beat one another. The drivers try to overtake one another. Most of the roads and turnings in our country are narrow and risky. This results in horrible accidents: I suggest the following steps to check this tendency.
· Police check-posts should be set up at small distances. Surprise raids should be made on the running buses.
· Licenses of the drivers who are in the habit of rash driving should be cancelled at once. If the bus companies neglect the warning, their route permits should be discontinued.
· The public should also co-operate with the Government. The passenger should enforce the drivers not to exceed the speed limit. They should refuse to travel by the buses which do not follow traffic rules. This can do much in this respect.
Yours truly,
