More and more people are relying on the private car as their major means of transportation. Describe some of the problems over-reliance on cars can cause, and suggest at least one possible solution. Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience

Despite much investment in public

transportation

,

people

still prefer to possess their own vehicles, especially

cars

, when they commute to work or on holidays.

This

might seems to provide them more convenience,

however

, there are

also

many problems accompanying the usage of

cars

. Some of the problems will be discussed below together with suggestions for alternatives.

Firstly

, car usage has reportedly caused a huge amount of exhaust and

therefore

the alert level.

This

leads to detrimental repercussions on residentials' health and

on the habitat.

Secondly

, the increased figure in car sales and usage

also

goes along with the rising number of car accidents due to unconscious driving or rushing behaviours.

For instance

, one of the prominent reasons for

people

to choose

cars

among other types of

transportation

is the ability to choose when and how fast to drive to their destinations. At some points when they are in a hurry to work, they would probably choose

cars

instead

of running to the

train

station and spare some more minutes waiting with the risk of

train

delay. In that case, they will more likely use their own

cars

and speed up, risking crashing their vehicles with others'. In other situations,

might choose

unconscious state of mind when driving, leading to high chances of accidents. For the reasons above, I personally believe public

transportation

is preferable for the safety of everyone on the streets. So as to make it more convenient, governments and

train

stations managers can consider increasing the number of trains and schedule.

For example
