Comment on "Make road safety the new traffic mantra" (China Daily, Nov 3)

I agree with the author Deng Fei. One comment stands out and that is: "I own a car, I own the road". I'm not trying to say that all Chinese drivers have that mindset, but it's obvious that a majority of them do.

Education and a stronger enforcement of traffic laws should be at the forefront of policies. Passing new transport laws will do nothing to curb the carnage on roads unless the existing laws are strictly enforced.
