One common cause is drivers not paying attention, who are responsible for 90% traffic accidents.
Sample
It is estimated that 1.3 million people die in road traffic crashes globally every year. So I call on all of us to promote road safety.
One common cause is drivers not paying attention, who are responsible for 90% traffic accidents. For example, drivers tend to be distracted when checking their phones, which will result in disastrous consequences. Similarly, road users sometimes disobey traffic regulations. For instance, some pedestrians and e-bike riders often cross the road randomly or ignore the traffic lights.
To improve road safety, all of us practice safe driving and avoid all high-risk behaviours, which will make all the difference.
