traffic accidents

When I was a child,traffic accidents didn't occur so much.Most probably,,occuring accidents depends on the place which is lived in.Because,I live in Denizli and I don't remember so much traffic accidents.When we consider Istanbul,rate of traffic accidents is considerably high.Because Istanbul is improving continuously and the almost every person who lives in there has a car.And the roads in there are inadequate.What is more,traffic is very congested that is traffic jam.As a natural consequence of all these,unfortunately,many traffic accidents occur in Istanbul.These accidents cause not only death of most people but also they cause loss of material goods.The reasons of traffic accidents are carelessness,bad weather conditions,excessive use of alcohol,neglect of traffic rules,traffic jam,sleeplessness etc.     First of the reasons is that , before setting out,many people drink alcohol although they  know  effecting badly them on road.After drinking much alcohol ,they can’t pay attention to road.They drive without obeying traffic rules.What is more,they drive fastly.As inevitable,they have an accident.They may lose their car even they lose their life.Most people drive without their driving license.Driving without driving license is very dangerous as it causes many accidents.Also,the people who haven’t a driving license can’t know exactly traffic rules.So,they drive casually and they may cause many damages.       One of the reasons of traffic accidents is weather conditions.If the weather is bad ,that is,snowy,rainy and slippery,accidents may occur in these weather conditions.For example;a person who drives on snowy or slippery road has to be so careful.If he/she is not careful ,she/he may have an accident.People can take measures to prevent traffic accidents.One of these measures is to put on chain their car ,to drive slowly and rigorously.Other reasons of traffic accidents are sleeplessness and  traffic jam.Since these things are inevitable,people must be careful. if they want to live.        In order to prevent traffic accidents,people must be so careful.They must have a driving license.If they have not a driving license,they mustn’t drive.Further,they must obey traffic rules.When they drink alcohol,they must not drive or their friend can drive their car.Also,they must be alert to weather conditions.They must carry a bag including chain,water,food,bandage,lantern in their car.                        Don’t forget, traffic accidents are enemy of humanity!                                                                                                                           Fatma KARACA
