write a letter to the editor of a newspaper complaining about the problem of road accidents in Nepal​
Nesterboy [21]

Dear editor.

I am writing this letter to alert you to the serious problems we are facing on the main highways of our city, where traffic is completely neglected and the number of accidents has grown at an alarming rate.

Our highways have holes in the roads, lack of signage, traffic lights with malfunction and lack of traffic guards. All of this has left the traffic in the city a real chaos and has caused a great risk to the lives of drivers and pedestrians.

We went to the city hall to ask for a solution to this problem, but we didn't get an answer. For this reason, I come, humbly, to ask you to address this problem in your newspaper so that the attention of the authorities is brought to your attention.

Thank you in advance for your time and consideration.

Regards,

Neemy Shap
