One way to reduce the problem of traffic congestion is by increasing the tax on private vehicles. Do you think this is a feasible solution?

I believe that, by raising the amount of taxes on the purchase of personal vehicles will not have any

affect

a phenomenon that follows and is caused by some previous phenomenon

effect

on controlling the

traffic

jams.

This

essay will explain, why introducing heavy taxes on personal cars will not help in minimizing the

traffic

on roads. To embark upon, many people have significant buying power when it comes to buying a car. Purchasing a vehicle is always considered to be the one time investment, and people often worry about fuel and maintenance, as they are recurring costs.

For example

, it has been observed that in countries like Pakistan, the major increase in tax on private vehicles did not affect sales of the car manufacturers.

In addition

, school buses and public transport

also

plays a significant role in

traffic

jams. The

traffic

moves slowly during mornings and afternoons, because of the schools and colleges timings.

Furthermore

, increasing the amount of taxes will only slow down the purchase of new vehicles, but will not have any impact on the

number

of vehicles already there on the roads. The

number

of vehicles on the roads has already increased and resulted in

traffic

jams around the world. To add

further

, many of the countries have not been able to expand their infrastructure. With the rapid increase in

number

Suggestion

the number

of private vehicles on the roads, the countries should forecast the need for expansion of roads and building flyovers to counter the

traffic

problem.

For example

, it has been observed that the majority of the

traffic

problems are a result of poor infrastructure planning by the Governments. To conclude, increasing the tax on vehicles is not a suitable way to decrease

traffic

, as it is easy for people to invest in a vehicle, and public vehicles

also

contribute to the

traffic

issues.

Moreover

, increasing taxes will not help in reducing the current

number

of vehicles, and other factors like poor infrastructure planning

also plays
