Traffic Congestion

Problems:
Problems faced with traffic congestion is that it is very time consuming, it makes people
be late for important meeting and it also consumes a lot of fuel. In emergency vehicles
are stuck in traffic. For example Ambulances, Fire trucks and police cars etc.
Effects:
Social:
Can cause you to be late for your important meeting or appointment. This means you
might get into trouble with your boss and sometimes can even get fired from your job.
Emergency vehicles are also stuck in traffic which means lives may be lost because an
ambulance could not get to a hospital in time or fire trucks were late to a burning
building .
Economical:
Being stuck in a traffic congestion waste more fuel than it already should. This means the
driver has to go to fill up gasoline more frequently. This wastes more money on
gasoline.
Environmental:
When traffic congestions occur it releases more carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. This
then stores up inside the greenhouse gases and creates global warming. This makes the
world hotter 
Solutions:
A solution to traffic congestion that the government has used is to build high ways
and/or bridges to avoid traffic congestions.  Also car pooling on freeways are organised
to avoid traffic congestion on freeways.  Car pool is an extra lane for passengers two or
more persons sitting in your car and can run freely without the disturbance of cars with
only one person.  Subways and more walk paths and roads were built to avoid traffic
congestion.
