Increasing the price of petrol is the best way to solve growing traffic and pollution problems. To what extend do you agree or disagree ?

The most effective solution for growing traffic and pollution is raising the cost of

fuel

.

However

, I totally disagree with

this

statement for some reasons. First of all, petrol is mainly used for

cars

and public

transport

which are demanded by

people

. It means that despite the raising cost individuals will not stop using vehicles. Since

people

use private

cars

for getting to their workplaces the high

prices

cannot prevent them from driving

cars

and turning to public

transport

.

Due to

public

transport

being inconvenient

people

prefer using their own

cars

.

As a result

, drivers will not stop polluting and creating traffic problems with their vehicles.

For instance

, imagine a situation where one family is going on a trip to the mountains. Obviously,

this

family will use their own car in order to reach their destination even if the price of

fuel

would be extremely high.

Consequently

, the used car will pollute the air during the whole road.

Secondly

, increasing the price of petrol will bring negative consequences. One point is that with hiking

fuel

costs other

prices

of different products will increase

also

.

For example

, the service of lorries will raise and it will touch the value of goods since they are delivered by trucks. Another consequence is that high

prices

might touch both government's economy and individuals' budgets. If petrol is expensive

people

will spend more money and require a boost in their salary. Evidently, it is not beneficial for the government. Since the government has its own plans to spend money it will slow down the development.

However

, all of these disadvantages cannot stop humans from using

cars

and they will continue to pollute our air and make traffic problems.

To conclude

, increasing the price of

fuel

cannot prevent

people

from using

cars

regardless of disadvantages

such

as high

prices

of goods.

In addition

, because of the inconvenience of public

transport

humans will continue driving their own vehicle creating traffics and polluting the air.
