Vol. Teac. XII.- Deadliest Carnival on the Brazilian Roads

        I decided posted that report in this blog, because I was watching the TV news when I got knowing that this carnival was the deadliest ever recorded, since all the road`s accidents started to be monitored, there were 213 deaths on the Brazilians roads.
        Specialists said that this increase was due to the rainy weather, but the drivers knows that we are in the rainy season, so I think they should be prepared and drive with due care to this kind of weather, I think that the rain can not be used as a excuse to murder on roads, to the imprudent behavior.
         Sometimes the imprudenters is the own and only victim of their irresponsibility, but when it is not what happens, justice has to be done. I think some measure could be taken to low these so high dead`s rate in vehicule accidents in Brazil.
        More use of breathalyzer on roads and on streets with higher fines to the lawbreakers, the same for who drive above the speed limit or for who passes in forbidden place. Also, as we can see in the previous report, the pedestrians and motocyclists are half of the deadly victim in the traffic and we should demand more respect for them, the fragilest and vulnerable on roads and on streets.
         It is proved that the main cause of accidents is the excess of speed, so why there is no more radars on roads and streets, I think is essential to put these devices in the most dangerous places. Another measure that would be very useful is to build divided highway, at least in curves and in crossing or in urban pieces of the roads.With these measures, Brazil possibly will lose many positions in the deadliest traffic ranking.
        There is not a tragedy and crime like homicide, but, of course that a intentional murder is much worse.
         In both cases, Brazil is among the top ten countries with the highest death`s rate of the world.
   In my opinion, the lawmakers should watch how is the justice in more advanced countries and maybe they realized that murderes usually got a punishment a lot harder than other lawbreakers, consequently, murderes thinks more before to kill somebody.
         The life is short and everybody have the right to live longest as possible.
