Nowadays many people cross streets without watch traffic lights．So traffic accidents often happen for those who didn’t follow traffic rules．Why don’t people follow traffic rules? They haven’t realized an importance of traffic safety．Besides, some people are such busy that they don’t want wait for the green light．How do we solve the problem? First of all, we should develop into the habit of following traffic rules．Secondly, who breaks traffic rules should be punished．Lastly, we should teach kids how to cross streets safe．If we did that, there would be fewer traffic accident, and we would live a better life.
