Drinking and driving English composition band 4

No one will notice that drunk driving is a serious problem we are facing. Generally speaking, there are several reasons behind this phenomenon. First of all, recent decades have witnessed the rapid development of people's living standards. Therefore, cars are becoming more and more popular and have entered our daily life. Secondly, people attend more activities or banquets than before, where they will drink white wine/spirits. Then, they may get drunk, but keep driving.

If we continue to turn a blind eye, drunk driving will inevitably have serious consequences. First of all, this behavior will directly threaten the safety of drivers, passengers and pedestrians, leading to traffic accidents, injuries and even deaths. Besides, treating the injured and repairing the broken car means a serious waste of money, time and resources. Last but not least, this irresponsible driving will make the road a nightmare, so it will lead to a serious loss of trust in the government and society.

Considering the seriousness of the problem, effective measures must be taken before things get worse. First of all, it is crucial to strengthen the supervisory role of laws and regulations to punish those who drink and drive. Secondly, the public, especially drivers, should enhance their awareness of public safety. With strict laws and an alert public, it is only a matter of time before drunk driving becomes history.
