Congestion is a huge problem. Why does it happen? How can it be tackled?

As

cities

grew and became more populated, the

streets

got a lot more congested. More

people

needed to travel longer distances to get to work so, they bought a car for themselves and used their own

cars

to get to work every day. Indeed, more

cars

and

people

result in the

traffic

we witness in our

cities

.

Moreover

, in many societies, the rate at which accidents happen is up to the roof and these accidents act as a cherry on top of all the

traffic

we experience.

However

, there are possible actions to be taken about the

infrastructure

of a city, or perhaps, driving

lessons

in our driving courses, that could help the problem of congestion in our

streets

.

Firstly

, older

cities

were built long before

cars

were invented. S o, these

cities

' infrastructures are not designed to handle

such

a great number of

cars

people

own these days and

therefore

,

streets

become congested easily.

Also

, folk who drive dangerously and disrupt the order in the

streets

are to blame.

For instance

, we all might have experienced a situation in which someone who claimed he was a good driver, blocked a street and created heavy

traffic

.

Thus

, a variety of reasons could lead to annoying

traffic

we all know and hate

such

as poor

infrastructure

and bad drivers. To solve the problem of

infrastructure

, governments should start planning to upgrade city

infrastructure

as soon as possible and put it in their top priorities.

Also

, the driving

lessons

given in institutes are now proven to be faulty and a lot of

people

totally forget about these

lessons

when they obtain their driver's licenses.

Hence

, these

lessons

should be revised and of course, taken more seriously in order to boost the driving culture in our countries.

To conclude

,

while

our

cities

continue to expand and become more populated, we need to recognize the conditions of our infrastructures and plan to improve them before it is too late.

Moreover

, we need to accept our current method of teaching is not suitable for driving

lessons

and correct it as soon as possible. These are only a few causes of the problem of

traffic

and indeed, we need to find a solution for them before we face more severe problems in the future.
