İt is true that some people do not have a feeling of safety whether they are in their own house or when they are in public places or in the street.While the couses of this problem can be identified,I believe that some solutions could help to cut down such fear.
The perception that society is unsafe and people are at risk even at home stems from at least two reasons. One of the major causes is probably the huge gap between the rich and the poor in a community which leads to the rising crime rate. Another reason might be the dangerous situations people encounter on the street from careless drivers or traffic jams. Unfortunately, severe accidents could happen with people who obey traffic rules well. In many recent news reports, hundreds of car incidents were caused by those who totally get drunk or at high speed, and sadly the victims are innocent good citizens.
There is countless way in which this devasting problem can be solved. Firstly, I think the government should try as much as possible to provide more jobs, especially to the youth of today. While they are occupied with work activities, this will prevent them from committing any offences to the general public. Secondly, there should be more police offers who should be instructed to patrol on the street. When offenders notice the presence of officers in town, they will be frightened to commit any offences.
In conclusion, the problem of poverty as a cause of crimes and the problem of road safety can be tackled by effective solutions,giving people a greater sense of security.
