"Cars are the greatest danger to human life today"
In my view the invention of the motorcar has caused nothing but problems; from pollution to accidents and deaths. There are various facts and figures that support this opinion.
In the first place, cars contribute greatly to air pollution. The poisonous gases emitted by car exhausts are dangerous to our health and can make cities very unpleasant places to live in.
In addition to this, cars nowadays can travel at high speeds and as a result people are tempted to drive faster. This causes more traffic accidents and thousands of people die each year from reckless driving and speeding vehicles.
On the other hand, it is argued that the car is something that we cannot live without. Its comfort and
convenience are hard to beat and these days most families own at least one car.
All things considered, I believe that the motor car does endanger our lives in many ways. Only if action is taken to reduce the risks, will it become a safer and healthier form of transport.
