Traffic accidents have become very common on the country’s roads nowadays. While this is due in large part to a growing population of car and bike owners, especially in large cities, and roads too small or poorly built to accommodate them all, I also feel that people have become more dismissive of the traffic rules.
Thus, road accidents are bound to happen. Unfortunately, the concerned authorities have failed to address the problem adequately. People need to be more careful when on the road, no matter which mode of transport they are using and the authorities need to build bigger and better roads and enforce traffic rules more stringently.
