A good number of issues have resulted from the climbing rate of vehicular use in most urban settlements around the world, many of which have considered placing embargoes on the use of privately owned vehicles in the

 of the
city
. I am inclined to agree with
this
 school of thought as it would be a relief to the unyielding traffic situation in most parts of the
city
.
To begin
, it is fairly well known that the frequent traffic jams experienced serially by commuters is as a result of too many vehicles plying the same route at the same time of day. People who reside at the extremes of the
city
 and those from neighbouring towns all tend to gravitate towards the

Consequently

This
 does no good for the traffic situation. Roads become jammed or slow moving at best.

Furthermore
, parking spaces are not adequately provided,
