I, like many people, get so involved in the conversations on the phone that we pay less attention to the road without noticing. If there was a very important call that you had to make you should pull over and make it instead of taking a risk of getting into a wreck. People get distracted when they look away from the road while trying to find their cell phone, or while texting, or when dialing a phone number. People who are messing with their phones can only have one hand on the wheel because their other hand is on the phone and that can be very dangerous. When someone is dialing the phone or texting they have to take their eyes off of the road and it is so dangerous to take your eye off of the road for a second and it isn’t worth taking that risk for a cell phone.
It sounds confusing but when people see a man with a gun, no matter what side of the law he is on, they will get intimidated and possibly fear him. Taking away this gun will give that man less power, but he will also gain the people’s respect. For a society with police and people to coexist peacefully without conflict, weapons should not be involved. This way, less crime will occur and police will be respected more. A real life example of this perfect world is England today.
Accidents are on the rise, in fact in 2012 there were 3,921 people killed and 104,000 people injured in crashes involving large trucks. Fatalities in crashes involving large trucks increased by 4-percent in 2012 (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, 2012, DOT HS 811 868). This may not seem like a lot but it is. I think we can all remember times when we have been driving on the interstate and after seeing semi's on the road it makes you kind of nervous. These are monster trucks that are on the road carrying tons of weight and have the ability to cause a lot of destruction if they are not respected by their drivers.
Ford’s Pinto Dilemma Thirteen crashes involving the Ford Pinto was the cause of lawsuits brought against Ford adding up to more than 50 million dollars (De George, 2006). Although these 13 deadly crashes seem like a high number of accidents resulting from the Pinto being sold without a baffle, take into consideration the comparison to the total amount of fatal accidents every year. Every year there is close to 40,000 fatal car accidents in the United States (National Highway Safety Traffic Administration, 2011). During a seven year period, this accounts for approximately 280,000 car accidents. If averaged out the Pinto accidents were only responsible for 0.005% of fatal car crashes over those seven years.
Based on these facts, I recommend a proposition that can help lower the number of car accidents. Older drivers should have to take and pass another drivers test because their alertness, vision, and reaction time may not be good enough to be a safe driver. If this happened, then it would take off the older drivers who are not able to drive safely and are a possible threat to other drivers. Being alert and knowing what is going on around you when driving is a good way to avoid car accidents. A police expert reported to The Telegraph new company that older drivers fail to give way and stay in their lane.
The chances of getting hit by a car when jaywalking is very high, as the driver does not expect the pedestrian to cross the street where there is no traffic light. Jaywalking is dangerous for both the pedestrian and the driver; the driver may lose control of the car when trying to avoid hitting the pedestrian, while the car may hit the pedestrian. Secondly, is the long wait for the traffic light to change a valid reason to jaywalk? I think not. This is a mature society; we all should have enough patience to wait for three to four minutes for a “green man” signal, because I believe that all of one’s life efforts are not worth sacrificing for just four minutes of convenience.
Well because designers of the cars believed that if there were less driver distractions than they can include less safety features. Designing a safer car is more important than reducing driver distractions because there will always a driver distracted whether the car is safer or not. I think that it’s more realistic and smarter designing a safer car because you don’t know what or who can distract the passenger it could even be in the car that’s distracting them so if by making it safer inside and out the more likely it’s going to protect the passenger and the occupants inside the vehicle. In conclusion I believe that creating a safer car is more important than reducing driver distraction because it always depends on the drivers attention span, second you will always have distractions on the road, and third of all the safer the car the safer the accident
Texting while driving is not worth the risk. Evidently, such activity on the road is the most dangerous thing which can be imagined. a driver does not look at the road but texts with someone and very often on high speed. Such people forget about children and animals who enjoy crossing the road spontaneously. A driver should be careful and follow the road all the time, without the right to lose control even for one second.
As a result of careless pedestrian behaviors, such as intoxication, jaywalking, and careless crossing, drivers are unable to avoid a collision. Because of driver distraction and intoxication, speeding, or an increase of vehicle traffic, pedestrians are not quickly
Government officials keep creating laws that tend to slow down the process of owning a handgun, but it doesn’t solve the issue that crime still exists in this country. In order to commit a crime, owning a handgun isn’t truly necessary; anyone can commit it with any blunt object. The issue regarding crime will never be resolved no matter how many laws the government throws at it. Banning handguns will be almost like banning
