Many people prefer to use public transportation while others say that personal cars are the best mode of transportation. Excessive use of private cars is considered to be the main reason for the traffic jam in many cities and that's why the use of public transportation is encouraged. In your opinion what are the pros and cons of using public transport?

It is an irrefutable fact that public
transport
is less harmful to the environment compared to private vehicles, as they can fit much more
people
.
However
, many
people
prefer to own a car and drive themselves rather than using
busses
or trains.
This
is because public
transport
has a number of inconveniences for individuals. The following paragraphs will analyze the advantages and disadvantages of public
transportation
. To commence with the advantages, some types of public
transportation
efficiently burn fossil fuels and others even work on sustainable energy. It is well known that the exhaust fumes generated by cars have a direct impact on air quality.
For example
, the more
people
suit into one vehicle, the better for the environment.
Secondly
, taking a railway or a subway train is economically efficient rather than getting a taxi or owning a car. As individuals do not have to spend money on repairs and fuels.
Last
, but not least, increased demand for public
transportation
can dramatically reduce traffic congestion. Thereby,
people
may experience less stress and anxiety. On the negative side, even in developed countries,
busses
are not reliable and flexible. Take,
for example
,
busses
in Tashkent. I do not use
busses
because they are inefficient and inconvenient, sometimes I need to change
busses
twice in order to reach my destination.
Additionally
, public
transport
is not as safe as private vehicles. Frequently, in overcrowded public
transport
, individuals become victims of pickpocketing. To conclude, public
transportation
has more advantages rather than drawbacks.
However
, tackling the issues related to them can encourage more
people
to use public
transport
.
