Nowadays, more and more cars are appearing on our roads. While increased usage of cars has many benefits for society, unfortunately there are also some drawbacks.
One of the biggest benefits of using cars is the convenience. Instead of having to wait in inclement weather for the next bus or train, you can just jump into a car and be at your destination in no time. In addition, if travelling with a family, public transportation can be quite expensive. Loading everyone into same automobile is a lot more time and cost effective. Finally, owning your own vehicle allows for more freedom - you can go anywhere at any time.
On the other hand, increased car ownership is not without some drawbacks. Perhaps the major drawback are the adverse effects cars have on the environment due to exhaust fumes. Another drawback is the traffic congestion caused by cars. Cars owners don’t have much independence if they are stuck in traffic jams all the time. A final drawback is that car insurance and tax is quite expensive, particularly for younger drivers.
In conclusion, there are both advantages and disadvantages to owning a car. However, I believe that the benefits, mainly convenience and freedom, for mankind outweigh the drawbacks.
