Teen traffic

We have recently noticed many fatal incidents related to underage driving. This matter has become very serious now as many lives lie at risk while adolescents ride around the town. Even after many terrible accident caused due to underage driving, very few action towards it has been taken. There is a need for a change on our roads now. The fine has dropped from 1,106rs in 2006, to 586rs in 2007 and now 289rs in 2008 (may). The low traffic fine and lenient traffic rules another reason why young drivers drive freely on the streets. It is only recently that the maximum fine has been raised to 1000rs. Parents also don’t pay attention to what their children do and some also encourage them to drive. They need to think twice before handing over the key to their children.

Teen drivers between the ages of 16 to 19 have 5 times more the chances of getting into an accident than any older person would. Due to less experience teens are more likely to underestimate hazardous situations. Compared to older drivers, teens are most likely to be the ones speeding, running red light and making illegal turns, and driving after the consumption of alcohol or drugs. Young drivers riding with other teen passengers have more chances of crashing, as more the passengers, more the chances of casualties. The traffic control has come to a conclusion that majority of the accidents by underage drivers are caused on Friday and Saturday nights between 9pm to 6 am. About 30% of the crashes witnessed in Gujarat involved speeding and alcohol even though Gujarat is a dry state.

Parents and teenagers need to be made aware of the dangers of driving. Underage driving should be avoided. 1400 adolescents died due to underage driving in India in 1999 and the numbers keep growing drastically, year by year.

Euphemism

Drive for Safety

Driving while talking on the cell phone has become a very common habit among people of all age groups. This results into many road accidents taking the lives of many people. This happens due to lack of attention because the drivers are distracted by the conversation. Even the use of bluetooth devices does not help the drivers in concentrating. They are only looking but not really seeing. Many studies have shown that use of cell phones while driving increases the risks of accidents among all age groups. To combat this, traffic rules have been formed that ban the use of mobile phones while driving. However, many people continue to disregard this rule.

The advertisement here aptly shows that a moment of carelessness can result in dangerous accidents. Using a toy car, it tries to put across this point very succinctly. It reminds us that it is very important to have complete focus on the road while driving. This is essential not only for the driver’s safety but also for the safety of other drivers and pedestrians.

ANOTHER SHIFT

‘Child labor’ is a human right issued and referred to the employment of a child. This practice is considered exploitative and is illegal in several countries. Child labor was employed to unreliable extents through most of the history, but in later times it became a serious matter of public dispute with changes in working conditions during industrialization with the coming out of the concepts of the workers’ and children rights. Thus it is not socially pleasing but is legally restricted in the majority of the world. (more…)

Influence On Your Child

parent_child6

As you grow, you change your attitude yout way of walking, your way of talking and of course your actions. By actions, it can be anything your way of eating your way of sitting or your way of walking. Any action you do changes as your age changes, when you are young you see your mother and father doing some actions if you are 5 year old you wont understand their action, but if you are 8 or 9 then you can understand the actions they do. When get some actions, which you never use to do first you dont realize but later when some other people find those changes, you start realising that those actions were nver yours. And then you know that you were influenced by some people and so you have those actions. Some of the actions are dangerous and harmful, and some helpful and good to do, and this can happen to anyone, you wont realize when you get those actions but you have them. And it can get influenced by younger kids faster than the older ones, because they have inccocent mind and if they see their brother or their parents doing some actions, they can do it too. As they think that if they are doing that action then its good, then if you are “hiting someone” or “helping an old man to cross the road.”

Smokers being highly affected in performance a sport activity

“The reality is that smokers are simply less fit. They have less endurance, flexibility and lower performance levels. They are highly unlikely to succeed in their chosen sport if they continue to smoke”. Studies have shown that athletes who smoke are more likely to discontinue active sports. Smoking decreases oxygen to your lungs causing you to puff more, increases heart rate to fatigue, increases the time taken for your heart rate to go back to normal which fronts to increase recovery times, slows your reaction speeds, effects your visual judgment, decreases oxygen to the muscles. In comparison to the above shows that the benefits of being a smoke free athlete are enormous. In short, the result of heavy smoking is sport reduced performance.

So, QUIT SMOKING and live a healthy life!!!
