Subject: Road Accident

The sight of ambulances and police-cars racing to the scene of a road accident in the city or on the busy highway is so commonplace in modern countries that few heads turn even in idle curiosity. This is part of the tragedy of road accidents. They occur so often that they are taken for granted, and the general public has become conditioned to them. A murder, a fire or a riot is still front page news, but a serious motor accident resulting in ghastly injury and often loss of life hardly rates a small back-page paragraph except o the relatives of those involved, whose lives may be shattered and reduced to pitiful sadness, often poverty, by a few seconds of rending metal and shattering glass. No solution of the problem can help these individuals. There is indeed no cure, so there must be prevention, an the alarming increase in accidents shown by statistics makes the question of cure an immediate one. In most countries, the accident rate goes up roughly in proportion to the increase in the number of vehicles on the road, and there is every sign that in most modern countries and 3rd world countries like philippines the numbers of both are steadily increasing.

Just as there is no single cause of road accidents, so there can be no single solution, although most countries are trying out both short and long term ideas. Looking ahead, the sane policy is to teach road manners, both to drivers and pedestrians alike.

Roads, of course, must be widened, improved, and modernized as fast as possible -- and preferably made two ways. it is rather a grievance among motorists that little of the revenue they pay in road-tax, is actually spent on road-improvement.

Vehicles should be subjected to a five-year check, at least, and old commercial vehicles to spot-checks. This would put many of them of the road.

Drivers also should undergo drug testing in order to avoid mishaps in the road while driving. The companies who hire them or private individuals should also check them if they have any criminal records. Require them to get government clearances for safety as well.

We never know when, where, how the road accident will happen. Keep safe always.
