Who is Responsible?



Accidents often occur in toll ways. On the 9th of September, a thirteen year old boy named Dul was driving back from Bogor to Jakarta and murdered six people in that tragic car accident. Dull is obviously under aged and is not allowed to drive because the legal age for driving in Indonesia is 17.

It is argued that Dul is the one who's supposed to be responsible since he was behind the wheel. But knowing that his son is still under aged, Dhani bought his son a car which led him to think that he's allowed to drive the car with/without his parents' supervising him.

Dul also turned off his phone while he was going back from his trip, while we know that the phone is the communication tool between Dul and his father. He ignored his father's calls and didn't send his father a message on his whereabouts.

In this situation, Dhani must be the one who has to take the responsibility since he knows that his son is still under aged yet still buy him a car and he gave his son the privilege to drive without any adults supervising him.

I conclude that we have to be more responsible whenever we're driving because when we're careless we can take lives of innocent people. And we have to be wise to give facilities to children, if they're under aged and we're considering to buy a car then why not wait until they're licensed? That way, we can prevent accidents like this to happen.
