Your city traffic department is conducting a survey to bring in revolutionary changes in the traffic management. The department has sent out an opinion survey to see what residents feel about the given options:
Option A: Department should issue more tickets with heavy plenties.
Option B: Department should Organise traffic awareness programmes on a regular basis.
I would prefer option B. As per the saying, prevention is better than cure, in the same way, awareness is better than penalties. I have two strong reasons to support option B.
Firstly, the traffic management department's duty is to develop a comfortable and secure environment for the residents. Issuing more tickets with heavy penalty amounts is not a solution for traffic-related problems. In fact, residents will be more scared of the rules, which can lead to more road accidents.
Secondly, If we conduct programs to spread awareness of how to organize traffic, it will make positive and effective changes into everyone behavior. People will know the right reasons for following rules and regulations. Thru awareness programs, we can teach kids beforehand so when they will actually go on the road, they will be prepared.
So, my vote goes to option B but I will support whatever decision will be taken. Thank you for giving me a chance to give my opinion.
