Dangerous Road Users (objectional and bias)
Concerns For Our Young and Elderly Road UsersAccording to driving instructor Nathan Smith, “Driving is, one of the most difficult skills people learn.” He later said “driving safely in today’s road conditions requires drivers to have essential skills. Alertness, coordination, concentration, observation, reflexes, basic car control and common sense.” The road is a dangerous place for young drivers. It is common for young drivers to be inexperienced and therefore lack the essential skills of driving. Often young drivers are not mature enough to cope with the responsibility of driving. Car advertisements on television may influence young drivers to speed or conduct other dangerous acts. Often seen on television are car advertisements portraying irresponsible or illegal driving behavior to be ‘sexy’ or ‘cool.’
rs made up 7.3 percent of Australian road users. Young drivers were also responsible for 16.3 percent of Australian vehicle deaths. Fortunately we can hope to look forward to safer roads, but must remember until accidents stop occurring, roads will always be dangerous! The roadway is a lethal place to be. One thoughtless move could be your death! During the year 2002, 1752 people died on Australian roads. Young drivers between seventeen and twenty-one are hogging a large share of the ‘death poll’ pie. Young drivers make up 7.3 percent of Australian road users, but are responsible for 16.3 percent of all people killed on our roads. Over the last fifteen years the road toll seems to be decreasing on average for each age group. Except for one. The seventy years and older group seems to remain static, dispite efforts to increase road safety. <
