Increasing the price of fuel is the best way to solve the growing traffic and pollution problems. To what extent do you agree or disagree? What other measures do you think might be effective?

Traffic

and

pollution

have become issues that are on the

increase

and the best method of resolving these is by raising the fee at which fuel is sold. In my opinion, I disagree with

this

solution because

instead

of solving the issues at hand, it would result to

in prices of goods and services. These problems can be resolved effectively by establishing

traffic

congestion and environmental laws and conducting vehicle checks on a planned frequency. Hiking the price of petrol is not a solution for the increasing

jams and environmental

pollution

because it will lead to a rise in prices of goods and services.

This

method of resolving the issue with

traffic

is not feasible because it will inevitably bring about hardship if the lower class are not able to afford to buy food items for consumption.

This

will leave the

in a state of hardship

thus

, causing more harm to citizens.

For example

, in 1998 when there was an

increase

in prices of goods and services.

This

action left the

country

in great distress because low income earners were not able to afford the foods at expensive rates, which led to severe hunger and poverty in most parts of the

.

Thus

Linking Words

, inflating the price of fuel as the solution for

traffic

Use synonyms

and

pollution

Use synonyms

problem is not effective. The two main effective methods for solving these issues are by creating

road

traffic

and environmental laws and conducting regular checks on cars.

Firstly

Linking Words

, laws guiding

road

traffic

Use synonyms

and

pollution

should be established as it will aid in calling individuals to order. These rules should be enforced as well by creating a group of people that will ensure that

road

users abide by the laws. If they fail to follow these set rules,

then

Linking Words

a taxing system should be introduced where people pay fines if they break these laws especially, knowingly. A survey conducted by the Federal

Road

the Road Safety Commission

, in Nigeria concluded that when fines were introduced as a punishment for breaking gridlock rules, the citizens began to pay more attention to the laws and made conscious efforts to abide by them.

Secondly

, vehicle checks should be done on vehicles plying the roads to ascertain if there are worthy to be driven on the roads or not. Most times, air

pollution

is caused by fumes from cars that are inappropriately managed.

Thus

Linking Words

,

this

measure will help to minimise the number of vehicles that are not properly maintained and could cause air

pollution

Use synonyms

. To illustrate

this

Linking Words

, the introduction of

road

worthiness in Nigeria, has greatly assisted the Nigerian Vehicle Inspection Organisation to ascertain vehicles that are not fit to be on the roads

thus

, enforcing that

such

cars should be repaired before its being driven again.

In other words

,

this

means has reduced

pollution

caused by gas fumes from poorly maintained vehicles on the roads. In conclusion, I disagree with the suggestion that hiking prices of gasoline will eradicate

traffic

and

pollution

issues because

will result

a rise in the prices at which goods and services are made available to people. In my opinion, effective methods of solving these issues are by introducing congestion
