Explanation:
Nowadays, it is very common to see young children clad in school uniform zooming around the city streets on two-wheelers. Most of these students do not have driving license but that does not stop them from performing stunts on bikes, which at times lead to accidentsParents should not give into children's demands and buy bikes for them if they are underage and do not have driving license. Peer pressure often leads to such demands and the most common excuse they give for getting a bike is going to tuitions.
The schools should also prohibit students to come on bike and not allow them to park the two-wheeler inside premises if they do not have a driving license.
Traffic police may organize drives near schools to check the driving license of students and if the child is found to be underage, their parents should be called. This will create a fear among parents and they would automatically stop giving two-wheelers to their children.
Traffic police should also stop students riding in school uniforms and check their papers. If the society comes together to check on these things, the number of accidents would automatically reduce.
