Sir/Madam,
I am writing to draw your attention through the columns of your esteemed daily about the increasing road accidents in the recent past. Last one month we have recorded three accidents in the same spot.
Since the road leading to the highway is less congested it makes the road safer but empty streets are misused by increased speed and distracted driving. Adding to this, improper vigilance has encouraged the person on the steering to overlook speed warning and traffic signals. Speed is the main determinant of serious injuries and fatalities. There have been several rollover incidents and single-car collisions. Pedestrians and bicyclist are also vulnerable to the threat.
The traffic police should be pulled up to perform their duty efficiently. The numbers of speed breakers must be increased and the authority must limit the maximum speed while driving through this particular area. Urgent measures should be taken to handle such nuisances and to check any impulsive action on the road.
Thanking You,
Yours faithfully,
Mr. Ak. Sarkar.

Sub: Accidents and Injuries caused by poor road conditions
Sir,
I am writing to draw your attention through the columns of your esteemed daily about the increasing road accidents in the recent past due to the poor conditions of the roads of our locality.
The roads of our localities are least taken care of by the authorities. The residents are facing several issues now and then but most disturbing is the number of accidents on the road due to its poor condition. Several potholes and poor lights on the road have created enormous hazards to the drivers. During the office hour rush a few residents of our locality also badly hurt themselves in those potholes and cracks. Recently a child while playing injured his legs and arms in one such pothole. Aged pedestrians are scared to access the road.
Before the situation gets worsened the road must be repaired and adequate light must be ensured. We are hopeful the concerned authorities will look into the matter with utmost urgency.
Thanking You ,
Yours faithfully,
Mr. Ak. Sarkar.
HOPE IT WILL HELP YOU
