Some people hold the view that raising the minimum age of eligibility

for drivers is the most efficient method in order to enhance road


safety. While this could be true to a certain extent, I believe that other
solutions should also be contemplated.
Admittedly, increasing the driving age seems to be an effective measure
to mitigate traffic incidents. Initially, this way could allow time for
young adults to sharpen their driving skills. They can attend defensive
driving courses as a way to learn about different driving scenariors in
real life, which assist them in minimizing traffic accidents when driving
their own vehicles. Futhermore, when people get older, they tend to
have more experience, which help them deal with dangerous situations
on the road more wisely im comparison with callow motorists.
Nonetheless, road safety can be achieved by more effiecient solutions.
In the first place, more stringent laws should be enacted as deterrent
to likely breaker. For instance, people who exceed the speed limit or
drink alcohol while driving should have to pay heavy monetary fine so
as to make them obey the rules in the next times. In the second place,
the authorities should allocate financial sources in improving public
transport to discourage private vehicle use. This way could avoid traffic
accidents caused by reckless driving when people drive their own
vehicles.
In conclusion, I believe that there are more effective measures to
ensure road safety compared to increasing the legal age for driving.
