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,

Traffic is alarmingly increasing by the day. The number of vehicles be they two wheeler or four has tremendously increased over the years and so has the traffic jam. To add fuel to the fire we are confronted with the nuisance of the rash driving by the motor bikes.
Bikers between the age group of eighteen to forty are always in a hurry. For them the world is on fire. So they speed their bikes much above the speed limit. They take turns abruptly without giving appropriate signals. They squeeze in between narrow gaps. Their rash driving this causes an alarming rise on road accidents.
A few days back a school bus plunged into the river killing fifty children all because a bike had suddenly turned up rashly from the opposite direction. The driver tried to save the biker and in the process lost all control of the bus. These kinds of incidents are being reported daily. If strict measures are not taken the nuisance of rash driving can never be avoided and the death toll will rise by the day.
