SAMPLE ANSWER
There is a flood of vehicles, including cars, on our roads today. This has caused various problems, like traffic jams, road accidents, environmental pollution, etc. the question arises: how can we reduce the number of cars running on our roads? There are various ways to do that.
The number of automobiles on the roads can be reduced by promoting public transport. The condition of public buses should be improved, so should be their timings and services. Moreover, the bus tickets should be moderately priced, so that they attract more and more commuters. Car pooling is another way of cutting down the number of cars on our roads. A few persons travelling to the same destination or along the same route can share one car. That way, instead of four or five cars, only one will run on the roads.
There are certain other methods too through which the number of cars can be brought down. Something back Delhi government introduced car rationing. According to this scheme, the cars with odd and even numbers were made to run on alternate days, the aim being to halve the number of cars on the roads. Certain countries observe one day in a week as a car-free day in different parts of their cities. But that reduce the number for only one day. Another method is to raise the prices of cars and their fuel, petrol or diesel.
To sum up, these are various ways through which the number of cars on the roads can be reduced; this would mean reduced pollution and fewer incidences of traffic jams and road accident.
