Subject- Awareness regarding the hazards of using headphones on the roads.
Respected Sir,
Through the column of your newspaper, I want to share my point about the risks of the use of headphones on highways/roads/streets. I also found that when our focus is divided, the dangers of an injury increases. This is an ignored, but very popular issue.
Many people wear headphones while driving or walking. They feel that it looks cool or natural but they don't see the detrimental effects of it. When listening to music, you can avoid noise outside, but you can also avoid the sound {vehicle horns, stray dogs etc}. Some vehicles may come from the other side, but they are so embraced in music that they don't know about it. Or, if an individual crosses the lane, they may not know if they do not hear, which may be fatal in turn. This may be a major problem when an ambulance is behind us and wants a passage, so you don't know about it. Music can influence the mood but it can influence your driving as well.
Music is an entertainment medium, it is vital and should have a place in our lives, but at the same time, we cannot really concentrate on two separate activities. This truth is not known to many people and it must be known to them. Full focus on the road is a must for safety while driving.
I hope you will give space to my thoughts and article in your newspaper and make people aware of the effect of using headphones while driving.
Thank you.
Yours faithfully,
Hitesh

Subject: Dangers of using headphones.
Sir,
I'm writing to you because I believe your publication ought to run a story about the dangers of using headphones when driving or riding on railroad tracks.
My opinions on this matter are straightforward: I believe that when you are somewhere that requires your full focus, any mental diversion is unhealthy. The sound that headphones produce comes into really close contact with the ears, which are where our body balance is focused. As a result, when we listen to music, our minds become relaxed and we are less able to react appropriately in times of trouble, which ultimately causes accidents.
People should stop wearing headphones or even mobile phones when walking, driving, or riding on railroad tracks because these activities require our whole attention and are dangerous.
Please take this into consideration and write a column raising awareness of the aforementioned subject.
Thank you,
Himani
