governments should spend money on railways rather than roads .to what extend do you agree or disagree with this statement ?

It goes without saying that since

cars

and other transportation vehicles were invented, governments were continuously trying to develop

roads

and

railways

.

In other words

,

roads

were an imperative part of transportation and all countries are trying to construct the best

roads

and

railways

.

Although

roads

are important for

cars

and motorbikes,

railways

are essential too and some

people

believe that governments should invest more in building

railways

rather than

roads

. As far as I am concerned, developing

roads

must be the priority and in what follows, two elaborate reasons will vindicate my standpoint. The most significant reason coming to mind is the fact that the majority of

people

drive

cars

instead

of using trains. A compelling example can drive

this

notion home. In my country, more than 75% of

people

prefer travelling by car

instead

of train.

However

, my country has spent millions of dollars on

railways

to have the newest trains and

railways

. In fact,

this

could not reduce the rate of

people

who prefer

cars

.

In addition

, the government has not paid enough attention to

build

Change the verb form

building

show examples

safer

roads

and

this

leads to a significant rate of accidents. If the government had invested more in constructing safer

roads

, the accident rate would have been much lower. Another equally noteworthy reason to bear in mind is the fact that in some countries, travelling by train is costly.

Hence

,

people

prefer to choose some other sorts of transportation. To sum it all up, having considered all the aforementioned reasons and examples, I strongly believe that building

roads

is more important than

railways

.

However

, it was just a short story in a nutshell and there are more cogent reasons to be contemplated. I hope every country invests based on its

people

's needs.
