Some people believe that the best way to reduce traffic congestion is to increase the price of petrol. MBP8o

It is generally agreed that higher petrol prices are the most effective way to solve traffic congestion. These days, there is overcrowding in urban areas where more and more people use private vehicles such as cars and motorbikes, which are devices that consume petrol. More people means an increased number of vehicles day by day which leads to traffic congestion. If petrol prices are unaffordable, people will be less likely to use their private vehicles frequently and they will be encouraged to go to work and back to home by public transports such as buses, and trains in peak hours. For example, this would lead to a decrease in use of cars and thus to pollution reduction.
