It is often argued that countries should impose extremely high taxes on private cars and provide free or inexpensive rail travel for tackle traffic issues. I completely disagree with the idea because excessive car taxes would be unfair to numerous citizens and not solve the main causes of traffic problems.
The primary reason is that heavily taxing private cars could create a significant financial burden on people who rely on their vehicles for work or daily activities. This is particularly problematic for those who live in suburban or rural areas, where railway services are frequently limited. If these tax law impose for everyone, they would have to allocate money simply to travel to work or supermarkets, which is unrealistic. To be more specific, employees who commute long distances and parents who need cars to take their children from school could be seriously problematic. Hence, instead of introducing excessive taxes, the government should ensure affordable and relaible transport systems or alternative roads.
Secondly, l believe that making rail travel free or low prices not necessarily solve traffic issues, because the problem is influenced by several other factors. If governments want to reduce the number of cars on the road, they should improve the overall roads and transport quality, which is give people practical solutions. For instance, if authorities introduce alternative roads and increase the number of buses for citizens, they will obtain practical solution and tackle of traffic problems. As a result, a policy and modern infrastructure provide a long-term solution.
In conclusion, l strongly disagree that private cars should be taxed heavily or fund cheap, free rail travels. Governments should enhance transportation systems and infrastructure.
