One possible version:

As is described in the picture, the driver is speeding. I think he must be doing over one hundred and sixty miles at the moment. It seems as if the driver is trying to drive the car even faster than the plane above. The passenger sitting behind him looks terrified. But the driver is smiling and feeling quite confident, saying "NO sweat".

As is known to all among all the causes leading to traffic accidents, speeding is the most dangerous. Because the driver is traveling too quickly, he can't stop the car in time to avoid an accident.

As a driver, he must realize the harmfulness of speeding both to himself and to the society. Life is very important. For the sake of yourself and for others, don't drive too fast, especially when traffic is heavy.
