Private car ownership has grown dramatically in recent years. This led to a rise in traffic congestion. What could governments and individuals do to reduce congestion?

In the 21st century, as the world’s population has risen consumerization of private

cars

increased leading to roads being blocked by

cars

. In my perspective, using public transport as a solution is not effective,

therefore

, government and individuals could find more successful ways to reduce congestion. Building upper and lower level roads on the highways decrease the

number

of

cars

creating a

traffic

jam.

For example

, Eastern Asian countries as South Korea and Japan built multiple levels on the road to avoid the crowding of vehicles. In that way, people driving in one direction won’t face congestions.

Instead

of expanding road by using free lands,

this

method will be effective for any country to reduce

traffic

jam. The program of hiring an automobile offers a practical choice for drivers shortening the usage of private vehicles. According to that, the user could get a car by an app for a time and

then

, others could hire the same car which will reduce the

number

of

cars

in the city. In my opinion, if the program will have an affordable price and comfort, many people will use the offer

instead

of purchasing

cars

of their own.

Therefore

, if there are only a few

cars

traffic

congestion won’t rise. To sum up, government and individuals by working together can shorten the

number

of private

cars

. If the rebuilding of roads will allow to reduce

traffic

jam, not owning but hiring a vehicle decreases the

number

of

cars

. In a similar way, people can avoid congestions on the highways.
