One possible version

     Recently we held a class meeting to discuss the problem of pedestrians crossing the street while the

traffic light is red. As we can see, some pedestrians don't obey traffic rules and jay-walk frequently. This

blocks traffic, seriously affects drivers and causes accidents to happen, endangering the safety of pedestrians

and drivers alike. In a word, jay-walking produces negative effects and does not help to develop good social

behavior.

     It is really a pity to see all this in our society and to deal with the situation, the government has taken some

measures. When caught jay-walking, pedestrians are reprimanded so that they will become aware of the

dangers of doing this, or they are fined on the spot. Sometimes the traffic police will report jaywalkers to their

workplace and expose them to the public. However, it will still take a long time to stop pedestrians from jay-

walking.
