Punish traffic rule violators

Beijing and other Chinese cities should take extreme punitive measures against rash drivers and habitual traffic rule violators. Official figures show that more than 100,000 people die in road accidents in China every year. And I suspect rash driving is responsible for many of the deaths.

I have visited many countries but not seen drivers as bad as those seen in China. Quite a few of them do not seem to have any knowledge of the basic rules of safe driving.
