In most parts of the world, the volume of traffic is growing at an alarming rate. In the form of an assignment, discuss about the main traffic problems in your country, their causes and possible solutions.

The progress of transport industry is inevitable¹ and undeniable. What is under controversy² is whether the volume of traffic is growing at an alarming rate. To be frank, I am in high favor that we are well aware of the traffic problem.

In my point of view, a possible cause of the problem is that we lack the infrastructure³ construction. Also the overpopulation is the cause of this problem, especially in China. Although the growth of the transport is rapid, it still can not meet the increasing needs of people. Furthermore, people abuse the private cars to take public transport instead, which caused more cars put into use. Lastly, individuals are also responsible for this problem. People are lacking in consciousness and awareness⁴ for traffic situation in order. Sometimes, people drive after drinking, which causes more traffic accidents.

The solution, I think, is for government to inject more funds into the construction of infrastructure, increase more construction, such as the restructuring of metro⁵ system, elevated ways, Pearl line, and superhighway. Also government should levy⁶ heavy tax on luxurious⁷ products, and encourage people to use bus service instead of private cars. To individuals, we may establish the family planning to control the growth of the population. Furthermore, we should publicize the importance of obeying the traffic regulations among people by education, and form the civil health lifestyle.
To conclude, with the joint⁸ effort of people and governments, I am sure the traffic problems will be improved.
