The first car appeared on British roads in 1888. By the year 2000, there may be as many as 29 million vehicles on British roads. Alternative forms of transport should be encouraged and international laws introduced to control car ownership and use. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

Transportation is an age long human activity.

Although

, the

first

vehicle to ply the roads of Britain was seen in 1888, the number of automobiles on the roads drastically increased to 29 million after 12 years.

Therefore

Linking Words

, I completely support the

of alternative modes of

and introduction of international laws to regulate the way motor vehicles are being used and owned. Excessive

use

of automobiles for

is highly associated with traffic congestion witnessed on our roads today.

Consequently

thus

, physical and psychological stress ensues. A good example is the case of Lagos, a densely populated state located in the South Western part of Nigeria, where most residents leave their homes early and return in very late in the night due to incessant delays experienced on the roads. It is,

therefore

, imperative for government to reinforce other means of

such

as railway and mass

systems, in order to considerably reduce the number of cars in

. Another reason why I support

this

idea is the negative impact of car

use

on the environment.

This

is because global warming had been revealed to be mainly caused by

carbondioxide

carbon dioxide

, a gas released from internal combustion engines of automobiles. Global warming depletes the ozone layer, which is a protective covering of the atmosphere.

For instance

, a recent

pointed out that the principal source of CO2 is the fume discharged from car exhaust.

Hence

, restriction of car ownership and

will invariably help to curtail the menace of global warming. To sum up, due to an upsurge in the

use

of vehicles, I am of the opinion that there should be reinforcement of railway

and adoption of foreign laws to curb the ownership and

of cars.

This

will go a long way in reducing traffic congestion and making our environment safer.
