Traffic accident is the most concerning problem we are facing today. The figure of the accident had become increasing and most of people are injured and died from day to day. To solve this problem, government of Cambodia especially the capital of Phnom Penh has taken action to introduce all Cambodian people to wear helmet. In my opinion, wearing helmet provides us some benefits for some reasons.

First of all, wearing helmet helps us to reduce traffic accidents. People will pay enough attention while they are driving on the way. Moreover, it helps us to protect our eyes from to the dust or terrible light from other vehicles because we don’t need to use our hand or fingers to clean it while we are controlling our vehicles.

Next, wearing helmet helps us to oblige our duty as a real citizen. Wearing helmet is the law; someone who broke it would be fined by traffic warden. People wearing helmet will become the responsible person because they obey the traffic law and traffic lights. It is the waste of time and money if police fine you. So being a good citizen, you must have a sense of responsibility.

Finally, wearing helmet helps us to protect our lives. While you are controlling your vehicle on the road, you would face a lot of problems especially accident. By wearing helmet, you can protect your head from danger. Head is the most important part of everyone. If our heads get problems, we can’t do anything or sometimes it can cause to be abnormal or crazy or even died.



All in all, wearing helmet is very useful for us especially our lives protected.  We can’t buy our lives but we can prevent it by wearing it. As Khmer quote says, “prevent is better than cure.” Together wearing helmet, I believe that our country will be in safety, peace and development.
