DEADLY ROADS

BY- Gautam

1.5 lakh people every year lose their lives on roads and that is data for India only. The number in the whole world is far bigger and alarming. Even pedestrians are not safe. Many are crushed by the reckless drivers who feel themselves entitled to use the roads the way they want. Careless driving is a common feature on our roads, leading to tragic accidents that claim precious lives. The recent incident occurred in Sector 27, where a teenage boy lost his life.

The government has done its duty by announcing compensation money. But can money really compensate loss of a life. No, never, the irresponsible drivers must be punished strictly before more innocent lives are lost on roads. One crucial step is to totally prohibit minors from driving. They often lack the maturity and experience necessary to handle vehicles safely.

It is the prime duty of the authority to ensure that all road users follow traffic rules diligently, wear helmets and seat belts. It can significantly reduce severity of injuries in accidents. Driving rashly, playing on roads, encroaching on road space, and driving under the influence of alcohol or using mobile must be strictly avoided.

Schools, colleges, and community organizations can play a significant role in conducting workshops and campaigns to educate people about road safety and promote responsible driving practices.

By implementing these measures, we can make our roads safer. It is time to prioritize road safety and ensure that every journey is a safe one.

The Menace of Reckless Driving: Let’s Put an End to It

By: Gautam 

Reckless driving has become a common feature on our roads, resulting in the loss of precious lives every day. The recent news of a teenaged boy losing his life in an accident is just one of the many unfortunate incidents caused by reckless driving. It is high time that we take a stand against this evil and work towards making our roads safer for everyone.

One of the major causes of reckless driving is minors getting behind the wheel. It is important for parents and guardians to educate their children about the dangers of driving without a license and to refrain from allowing them to drive until they are of legal age. Moreover, those who are guilty of reckless driving should be punished severely to set an example for others. Another factor contributing to reckless driving is the disregard for traffic rules. It is crucial for all drivers to obey traffic signals, wear helmets, and seat belts while driving. They must also avoid driving rashly, playing on the roads, encroaching roads, and most importantly, not drink and drive. These small actions can go a long way in preventing accidents and saving lives.

Additionally, there is a need to create awareness and educate people about road safety. This can be done through campaigns, workshops, and seminars. Schools can also play a vital role in educating students about road safety and the consequences of reckless driving. Moreover, it is the responsibility of the police authorities to be more vigilant and take strict action against those who violate traffic rules. They must also ensure proper road infrastructure and maintenance to prevent accidents caused by poor road conditions.

In conclusion, reckless driving is a serious issue that needs to be addressed urgently. It is our responsibility as citizens to follow traffic rules and encourage others to do the same. Let’s work together to make our roads safer and put an end to the menace of reckless driving. Remember, a small act of caution can save a life.

why we lack civic sense

 Q. Last week as you were coming back from school you happened to see a huge plastic bag full of leftovers of food being flung into the middle of the road from a speeding car. Write an article in 125-150 words on why we lack civic sense and how civic sense can be inculcated in children at a very young age.  

I. Littering: A Growing Concern
By: ABC

Last week, while returning from school, I witnessed a disheartening sight. A speeding car carelessly tossed a huge plastic bag filled with leftover food right into the middle of the road. This incident made me ponder about the lack of civic sense among people.

Littering is a prevalent issue in our society. People seem to have no qualms about discarding waste wherever they please, without considering the consequences for the environment and community. This disregard for cleanliness and public spaces reflects a growing apathy towards our surroundings.

Inculcating civic sense in children from a young age is crucial to address this problem. Parents and educators can play a vital role in teaching children about the importance of keeping their surroundings clean and tidy. By organizing clean-up drives, explaining the harmful effects of littering, and setting a positive example, we can foster a sense of responsibility and respect for public spaces in the younger generation.

Moreover, schools can incorporate environmental education into their curriculum, emphasizing the significance of preserving our planet. By promoting awareness and encouraging active participation in environmental initiatives, we can empower children to become responsible citizens who contribute to a cleaner and healthier community.

II. Civic Sense: A Necessity for a Better Society.
By:

As I was walking back from school last week, I witnessed an incident that left me appalled and disappointed. A huge plastic bag filled with leftovers of food was carelessly thrown out of a speeding car, right in the middle of the road. It was a blatant display of a lack of civic sense, and it made me wonder why such behavior is still prevalent in our society. Civic sense is the basic understanding of one’s responsibilities towards society and the environment. It includes simple acts like respecting public property, following traffic rules, and keeping our surroundings clean. Sadly, many of us seem to lack this sense of duty, and it reflects in our actions.

One of the main reasons for this lack of civic sense is the absence of proper education and awareness. Children are not taught about the importance of civic sense at a young age, and as they grow up, they tend to adopt the behavior they see around them. Parents and teachers play a crucial role in instilling civic sense in children. They can start by setting a good example themselves and teaching children about their responsibilities towards society. Another factor contributing to this problem is the lack of consequences for such actions. People often get away with littering, breaking traffic rules, and other similar acts without facing any repercussions. This only encourages them to continue with such irresponsible behaviour.

It is essential to understand that civic sense is not just about following rules; it is about having a sense of ownership and responsibility towards our society. We must realize that our actions have a direct impact on the environment and the people around us. It is our duty to preserve and protect our surroundings for the present and future generations.

In conclusion, it is high time we start taking our civic responsibilities seriously. We need to educate ourselves and our children about the importance of civic sense and lead by example. Only then can we hope for a better and more responsible society. As the famous saying goes, “Charity begins at home,” let us start by inculcating civic sense in our homes and spread it to the rest of the world.
