   Young people should be conscious of the risks of driving when they have previously drunk alcohol. There are several cases of people who have had accidents on the road because of this reason.One person is killed every half-hour due to drunk driving, statistics also show that alcohol is a factor in almost half of all traffic fatalities. Many young people enjoy night clubbing and drinking with their friends, but the trouble comes when they have to take the car to get  home. When they're on the road after drinking it is very difficult for them to concentrate and they have less ability to react quickly, so they can be involved in serious problems, like hitting a person who is crossing the street or get damaged themselves. 
Local authorities ought to help stopping this situation. They could do it by providing busses every hour in the night so that people who go out don't feel obliged to return home in their cars. Anyway, people should be responsible of their own life and realize that if there isn't any way to come back to their house but going by car they shouldn't drink. 
In conclusion, if we all cooperate, I think that we will be able to stop this awful situation and the deaths due to this will be reduced.

The lake Bled in Slovenia is a beautiful place that attracts many visitors every year.
It is a crystalline mass of water framed by mountains. In the middle of the lake, you can see a small island in which there is church. It is a really comfortable place to go, especially if you want to relax and contemplate the nature. When you are there you feel cold and you can notice there is something mysterious in that place.When I was there with high school it remained me to Agatha Christie novels, since they are usually developed on islands or any other kind of isolated places. I was really shocked when my teacher told me that the English writer had actually go to the lake to write. I don't know exactly the reason but I felt nostalgic in that place, a lot of thoughts came to my mind very quickly as if it was a film; but at the same time I was delighted by green trees, the transparent water and the snowed mountains at the back. There is a legend about the bell of the church, which says that if you ring the bell three times and ask for a wish it will come truth. I don't usually believe in this kind of things but I can say I had success in i
t. I had the opportunity to learn a lot about the place because we went with sloven people in a exchange and they were really interested in making us learn as many things as possible about their culture, history and traditions. They told us that it was frustrating to live in a really interesting and marvelous country and a lot of people from Europe didn't know it or appreciate it.
I can say that place really touched me by its beauty, and maybe because it is very different from the places I'm used to visiting, so I'm sure I will go back some day.
