Prompt: Increasing the price of petrol is the best way to solve the growing traffic and pollution problems. To what extent do you agree or disagree? what other measures do you think might be effective?
It’s inarguably that in this society of constant innovation yet myriad issues and the rising need for itineration and mobility, transportation is essential in one’s life. Nevertheless, chaotic and ungovernable traffic is a conspicuous problem that needs to be tackled, especially when nowadays innovation encourages the use and prompts the normalization of personalized vehicles in every household worldwide. Thus, the prominent idea of elevating the price of fuels for such vehicles is considered the best way to solve the growing traffic. However, I believe that this is not the case and I will propose other effective measures based on my experience.
