The local police want to convince drivers to obey the 55 miles per hour speed limit on the highways. the police chief is convinced that doubling speeding fines is the answer. you've just read the section of chapter 6 that deals with insufficient punishment. what would you say to him?

Doubling the Fine is not what should be done.

Explanation: The reason why doubling the fine is not what should be done is because the sense of economic penalty is different between people, according to the social status they belong to. For that reason, instead of a fine, there should be other measures such as opening a court case and then social work in order to make others raise awareness toward the speeding topic that depending on the case can even prove to be fatal in some cases.

dear friend:

  i hope this letter finds you in soaring spirits and vibrant health. as you had expressed the wish to know about culture, traditions, and unity of india in your previous letter, in the following lines i have tried my best to give you glimpses of our culture, traditions, and unity. you will be amazed to know that our culture is the oldest culture in the world and the birth place of hinduism, buddhism, jainism, and sikhism. you won’t find any other culture as varied and multi-colored, multi-lingual as ours. each region has its own unique culture, traditions, language. there are 22 official languages in india.

  basically, india is a spiritual country with orthodox traditions. for example the people of india believe in traditions set by their wise forefathers. arranged marriages, joint-family system, universal brotherhood, vegetarianism, celebrating festivals such as diwali, holi, eid, etc., are the salient features of our culture and traditions.

  another unique aspect about our country is ‘unity in diversity’. in spite of the multi-lingual, multi-religious, multi-traditional, multi-cultural society, people live peacefully together, respecting one another’s views, cultures, traditions, and differences. i am sure you would love to visit india soon, and have a first-hand experience of the multi-colored culture. give regards to uncle and aunt. do visit india with your family and experience our hospitality.

your friend,
