Dear Sir,
Please permit me to point out the hazards of reckless driving on city road. I shall feel grateful if you publish my views in the column of your esteemed newspaper.
Rash driving has become the order of the day. So many accidents take place every day on the city roads. Drivers play with the lives of children and old men. Young boys feel the thrill of speed. They do not observe traffic rules. They take pride in overtaking other vehicles and going against light at the crossing. All this results in fatal accidents. The law-abiding citizens are caught in this peril.
Traffic jam is yet another hazard. It is often seen that heavy vehicles are parked in the area of “no entry”. This cause traffic jams. Tangas and three-wheeler make thihgs worse in such an area. The policeman on duty remains a silent spectator. Drunken truck drivers play havoc with the lives of innocent people. It is a pity that such people escape and are not caught. Even if they are caught on the spot, they are let off with a minor punishment. They also bribe the policemen and go scot-free.
Traffic rules must be observed. Under-aged drivers and those driving without license should be punished. The drivers found driving in a drunken state should be dealt with sternly. Roads should be kept cleared of tangas, richkshaws and hand-carts. Speed breakers, roundabout and traffic light should be set up where necessary.
I request the authorities through these column to enforce the rule of the road and educate the people about traffic rules.
Thanking you,
Yours faithfully,

Subject : Complaint letter about the problems of traffic jam in our city.
Respected Sir,
Through the columns of your reputed newspaper, I would like to make everyone aware about the traffic jam in our city . Due to this huge population and the increased number of public and private cars, the city often faces bad traffics.
The number of people living in this city, the cars they are using and the public transportation they need is higher than the number of roads. As a result, the traffic jam often occurs and people have to suffer. Another reason for the traffic jam is the unauthorised parking of cars in the street. People do not often follow the exact traffic rules and because of their sincerity, we often face the horrible traffics in the street.
The traffic jam in our city is one of the terrible things the city dwellers have to face. People get stuck on the roads and they have no idea when they would be able to reach their destination. Because of this jam, people often miss important schedules, students can’t reach school in time and the outcome is devastating. Because of the jam in the street people have to schedule accordingly and the total time killed in the street is simply a waste of time.
There are many steps which should be taken to reduce the jam in the street. First of all the people who are driving in the street should very strictly follow the traffic rules. The traffic control authority should more strictly apply the rules. The number of private automobiles is increasing rapidly. Many single families own multiple cars and thus increase the number of total cars driving in the street. The rule should be imposed on purchasing cars and the price of the fuel could be increased as well. The public transportation system should be improved so that people can travel on public cars. The city has more population than it can comprise and decentralisation of industries, offices and educational institutes can be another solution to this abhorrent problem.
Hope you publish my article in your upcoming newspaper.
Thanking you sir,
Yours honestly,
