Today, most car accidents are caused by reckless young adults or teens. Politicians have decided to step in and introduced a law where teens have to wear a tracker GPS while driving anyone speeding or driving dangerously will be caught.
On the bright side, this law will reduce the danger on the road, because drivers will pay more attention when driving if they know that the police are watching them.
On the other side, I think it is unfair to make this proposed law pass, because it’s violating the privacy and the freedom of today’s teenagers. Teens have the same right as every other human and they deserved to be treated with respect. No one likes to be monitored and be tracked; I don’t think anyone would agree to have the police track their every movement.
I think this problem have to be solved elsewhere, like not giving the driver’s license to reckless people or people with police records. Forcing people to wear a GPS can do no good, because the drivers can just modify the GPS to report false data or simply not to wear them when they know they’ll drive fast. The criminals will always find a way to bypass this law and we will only hurt the innocents. Most of all, most teens drive responsibly, only a tiny number of young drivers are reckless. So by passing this law, we punish teens even if they did nothing wrong.
In other words, this law is a bad idea and by making this a law, we hurt the innocent people and not the criminals.
