more and more people use private cars instead of taking the public transport. what are the reasons for this rising trend? what can be done to encourage people to use public transport?
Nowadays, more
people
prefer to use their own cars
rather than public modes of transport
. The main reasons, in my opinion, are the increasing number
of middle-class groups and governments should improve the quality of public transportation. essay will discuss the reasons behind this
trend and offer possible solutions.
First and foremost, The increasing number
of middle-class people
is the main cause of the rising number
of individuals who prefer driving their automobiles rather than public transport
. In many less developed countries, having a car is a symbol of fortune, which means that they want to show off their position in society. Another reason related to this
trend is safety reason. While
public transport
such
as buses and trains are usually less maintained, private cars
tend to be more safe and convenient duo to routine services.
In terms of solutions, I believe that governments can encourage people
to take public transportation as long as they increase the facilities and excellent services. For instance
, the government should restrict old modes of transportation because of dangerous reasons like in Singapore where old vehicles are not allowed to operate on the roads. Furthermore
, another possible solution is high taxes for private cars
, and consequently
, people
would take consideration before buying a new car.
In conclusion, the presence of middle-class groups in our society is the primary reason for the increasing number
of people
using their private cars
. Therefore
, to deal with this
issue, governments should introduce policies related to high taxes for private automobiles, and at the same time, improve the facilities and services of public transport
to attract people
using these vehicles.Submitted by salwafahanim on
