In some cities of the world, cars are replacing bicycles. However, in some other cities, bicycles are replacing cars. What are the reasons for these two developments? In your opinion, which one is better?

Ever since technological innovations took place, there have been numerous options available for commuting from one place to another place from which

cars

and bicycles are the most prominent ones. It has been observed that individuals of a few nations prefer to travel by

car

, whereas, in some other countries, the number of

bicycle

users is even surpassing

car

users. The rationale underneath the origin of these two contrary trends appears to be the ease of owning a

with, the concern for environmental protection, which altogether goes against each other. Initiating with the regions where

countries have made the purchase of these vehicles relatively effortless than in the past. Especially, the provision of Equated Monthly Instalments allures the common public to buy a more convenient mode of transportation which is by no means a

peak, according to a recent survey. Now, which could be the better development? In my perspective, it is certainly the latter fashion of giving an edge to bicycles over

cars

. Unlike the past, the current scenario makes a peremptory request to be focused on ameliorating the prevailing situation of contaminated surroundings rather than being materialistic. If the

cars

are not replaced by an eco-friendly mode of transportation, in near future neither humans nor animals or birds will be able to survive.

This

scenario could be corroborated by taking into account the case of Australia where irreparable damage has been done to the life-saving ozone layer owing to the over-usage of private vehicles specifically

cars

. To recapitulate, it can be asserted that

the ease of purchasing

owners in some countries, people who know, it is their responsibility to think about the prospect of environmental pollution, are still prioritising bicycles over

cars

.

Hence

, I, too, would reiterate that for the survival of living creatures, it would be better to allow more earth-friendly vehicles on roads.
