Car ownership has increased so rapidly over the past thirty years that many cities in the world are now “one big traffic jam”. How true do you think this statement is? What measures can governments take to discourage people from using their cars?

During the past 30 years, the evolution of technology and the facility to buy a vehicle have increased the number of

However

, the question we should ask is whether

this

expansion has a consequence on the

traffic

jam. At a time when where restricted

traffic

areas in the city are multiplying, the individual automobile continues to seduce. It’s a reality linked to the fact that nowadays, people do not only have only a

car

in each family but well two or more.

This

is due to the rise of the personal requirement

working or others.

Moreover

, having his own

car

could be a synonym of freedom, especially for young people.

As a result

, public authorities are struggling to find alternatives to the

car

in a way to discourage people from taking their

car

or at least reducing its use. In some countries, It is common that public transports are free for the over 65. The retired people should have

this

opportunity to be able to move freely as they do not have any more work restrictions. As the population gets older, it’s an advantage to take

consideration. For the other age band, the price of public transport should be at a reasonable price available for everyone.

Furthermore

, regular schedules and frequency of the bus races or trains should be taken in consideration.

However

, the growth of cars moving towards the cities has definitely a consequence of the air pollution. It’s a subject that we couldn’t afford in these days and it’s the most negative aspects of the

traffic

jams. Another contributing fact is the birth of these new “city cars”. Economical and practical, they have a real impact on the

traffic

and pollution today. We can associate the growth of the selling in these cars by the development in technology that makes these cars available for quite anyone. On balance, it’s true that being owner of a

car

has many advantages and a thought to the public transport may be done.

However

, we hope the technology will do its parts by reducing the CO2 emission in the future. It’s on its way.
