 been decreased in about a year.
However
, before
this
 situation occurs, actually the speed of an increase in the amount of vehicle that was on the road outnumbered its construction of new roads. In the following essay, I will argue its reason and viable solution.
First
 of all, slowness of the construction of new ways might be at the root of the phenomenon. Even though more and more
people
 ride a vehicle than before and the demand for an increase in the capacity of roads rises, it is impossible to do so immediately because there are a lot of steps to build roadways. It is easier to happen that many
people
 are influenced by something and start driving a car because it is a change in
people
’s consciousness.
On the other hand
, it is never easy to actually increase things physically.
Secondly

 way to solve
this
 problem: it is to give up on building more roadways. As more are built, the more
people
 will want to drive.
For example
, assume that a place in the countryside where there were no pavements before is being built.
Then
, what might happen is that more
people
 will be able to ride in vehicles more comfortably, and the amount of traffic will rise. In conclusion, growth in
people
’s demand for riding a car exceeds the speed of construction because the latter is not fast enough.
Furthermore
, there might be no possible solution because as roadways are built, the amount of traffic will enlarge.
