Do you agree that the advantages cars bring outweigh the disadvantages?

Using automobile has been becoming increasingly common in recent years.

Although

I think that it maintains some obvious harmful consequences, I strongly believe that the advantages of the auto can outweigh its advantages. On the one hand, owning

cars

has a significant influence on the environment. The

first

reason is that the growth in travelling by

car

can lead to a rise in pollution, traffic jams, and accidents. More

cars

are likely to result in a rocketing rate of pollution.

Secondly

, our dependence on

cars

can lead to a decrease in practices,

such

as walking and cycling. People may have a higher chance of carrying more potential health risks like obesity and heart attack.

On the other hand

, there are many reasons why people prefer to own

cars

.

Firstly

, it provides people with the freedom of movement. The ease of transportation that a

car

brings is significant/prominent than any other form of vehicles.

For example

, you can go from a destination to another destination and no time is wasted waiting for the bus or train.

Therefore

, time and distance are not barriers anymore.

Secondly

, personal

cars

can give comfort while travelling compared to the public transports which are so crowded and disgusting.

For instance

, you can read books, listen to your favourite songs or even play with kids while you are in your own

car

but all seems to be impossible on public transport.

Finally

, families can go together.

This

becomes especially helpful when there are elderly, the disabled or even sick members in the families. In conclusion, having a

car

can lead to a few obvious problems, but I believe that owning a

car

is the best choice and the benefits that it brings about can outshine its drawbacks.
