The surprising thing is that society smiles so gently on the motorist and seems to forgive his behavior.Everything is done for his convenience.Cities are allowed to become almost uninhabitable because of heavy traffic; towns are made ugly by huge car parks; the countryside is ruined by road networks; and the deaths become nothing more than a number every year, to be easily forgotten.
It is high time a world rule was created to reduce this senseless waste of human life.With regard to driving, the laws of some countries are unbelievably lax () and even the strictest are not strict enough.A rule which was universally accepted could only have an obviously beneficial effect on the accident rate.Here are a few examples of some of the things that might be doe.The driving test should be standardized and made far more difficult than it is; all the drivers should be made to take a test every three years or so; the age at which young people are allowed to drive any vehicle should be raised to at least 21; all vehicles should tie put through strict tests for safety each year.Even the smallest amount of alcohol in the blood can damage a person's driving ability.Present drinking and driving laws ( where they exist) should be nude much stricter.Speed limits should be required on all roads.Governments should lay down safety specifications for car factories, as has been done in the USA.All advertising stressing power and performance should be banned.These measures may not sound good enough.But surely nothing should be considered as too severe if it results in reducing the number of deaths.After all, the world is for uman beings, not motor-cars.
