*ASSIGNMENT 1*
In order to reduce accidents on our roads, some people believe that introduction of speed limits on vehicles will go a long way, while others think there are more effective measures.
On the one hand, it is known to all that excessive speed on our highways may lead to accidents and I agree with this because it will be difficult to avert a car crash when on high speed as the driver in such condition has less control over the vehicle. For example, in a situation where one of the front tyres of an automobile in motion bursts, the speed of the car at the moment will determine whether the driver would apply the breaks or move until the car naturally slows down its momentum. This could be dangerous and with this reason, it is advised to maintain regular speed on the highways.
On the other hand, some believe other measures can be taken to achieve better results like; enforcement of laws that will penalize people who are not qualified to drive when caught driving and also banning vehicles that are not road worthy from being used. Others still suggest that maintenance of our roads and elimination of pot holes could prevent disaster on our roads.
In summary, while people have different ideas on best ways of keeping our roads safe, I'm of the opinion that reduction of maximum speed on vehicles is a sure solution.

In order to
reduce
accidents on our
roads
,
some
people
believe that introduction of
speed
limits on
vehicles
will go a long way, while others
think
there are more effective measures.
On the one hand, it
is known
to all that excessive
speed
on our highways may lead to accidents and I
agree
with this
because
it will be difficult to avert a car crash when on high
speed
as the driver in such condition has less control over the
vehicle
.
For example
, in a situation where one of the front
tyres
of an automobile in motion bursts, the
speed
of the car at the moment will determine whether the driver would apply the breaks or
move
until the car
naturally
slows down its momentum. This could be
dangerous
and with this reason, it
is advised
to maintain regular
speed
on the highways.
On the
other
hand,
some
believe
other
measures can
be taken
to achieve better results like; enforcement of laws that will penalize
people
who are not qualified to drive when caught driving and
also
banning
vehicles
that are not
road
worthy from being
used
. Others
still
suggest that maintenance of our
roads
and elimination of pot holes could
prevent
disaster on our roads.
In summary, while
people
have
different
ideas
on best ways of keeping our

safe, I'm of the opinion that reduction of maximum
speed
on
vehicles
is a sure solution.
