关于私家车问题的雅思作文范文

　　Most people know that driving private cars places a severe strain on cities' traffic and air-quality levels. However, very few are willing to give up driving and use public transport instead.

　　One reason for this is that to many people. a private car offers a sense of freedom and mobility. For example, they can drive their car to any supermarket in the city and return home with a boot full of groceries. Also. they can drive home from work late at night while others are anxiously waiting for public transport.

　　To other people, having a car increases their social position. Owning a car especially an expensive one - is a sign of their wealth or high social status.Consequently, they refuse to use public transport because they feel that squeezing into an overcrowded train or bus in rush hours is only for people with limited means.There are. however. measures the government could take to encourage the use of public transport. The first action could be to improve the service, like ensuring trains are punctual. installing more comfortable seats in waiting areas and providing additional bus routes. Furthermore. lowering fares would also be a very effective way of encouraging people to use the system. Finally. the government could educate people about the devastating impact of vehicle emissions on the environment so they would be less likely to drive.

　　If the above actions were taken. it would not be long before people realized that taking public transport is a much cheaper. more comfortable and more environmentally-friendly option than driving their own car.
