Unfortunately,
traffic
has been increasing all over the world. So, it is a crucial issue in every society, which is not solved yet. Experts offer different opinions and one of them is the growth of gas fees.
As a result
, from my point of view, decreasing the
traffic
or
pollution
problems will not happen necessarily because it depends on other factors.
For example
,
transportation
systems or factories.
According to
this
idea, some individuals may say increasing the gas
cost
helps reduce
traffic
or
pollution
issues. Because, in
this
way, people may use less own cars in travelling or moving in a city and they use public
transportation
more.
While
increasing the
petrol
fee directly affects the
cost
of many other necessary things.
For instance
, the
cost
of public
transportation
(taxis, buses, or subways), or even food materials. Because they are sent all over the cities, so, it is not the best way to use fewer private cars.
In addition
, factories will have to pay huge
money
for primary materials of products by increasing the gas price. So, they may not spend
money
to find the best way to prevent the
pollution
problems which they produce. Another point can be
petrol
smuggling. The more the
cost
of
petrol
increases, the more gasoline smuggling rises. Because many people’s jobs may be related to gasoline.
Therefore
, they cannot spend a large amount of
money
to buy expensive
petrol
. So, they resort to smuggling it to get more
money
.
To conclude
, increasing the price of
petrol
increases a lot of other stuff
consequently
. It is not only the best solution for using more public
transportation
than private cars, but
also
, it is not the best solution for
traffic
or
pollution
problems. Because
petrol
is just one item that affects air
pollution
