The effects of traffic congestion

It is traffic congestion a serious problem? A look tostreet especially in the morning gives us a certainly answer. Cars help in many ways people but create some problems in many ways too.
The population of Puerto Rico is approximately 4 million people.This mount of people can give us an idea of how many vehicles the island has and there are certainly many for the size of our island so we can say that this is one of many causes of trafficcongestion. Another cause of traffic congestion is the bad public transportation that P.R offers. It is true that some people can use the train but is also true that the train just cover a small area so thetrain didn’t bring the opportunity to use it and being sure that we are going to reach our destiny also public buses work only in the city so people that live in rural zones obviously needs a car totransport themselves to their works, schools or medical appointments.
This traffic congestion has several effects in person’s life, conduct and way of acting. I can start mentioning accidentsbecause too many vehicles increases the probability of accidents so we have a lot of vehicles that gives us a high probability of accidents and this situation gives us or produce in us a lot of stressand we all know that stress make people more aggressive than normally so the conduct of people change not in a positive way. Traffic congestion not only causes stress in people it also retrace peopleand create bad reputation in their works for example and a detail that I cannot forget is the pollution produced by vehicles and pollution affects health.
These effects couldn’t be more clearer intelling us that traffic congestion is a really serious problem that affect all the island and makes us more aggressive, more offenders so we have to bring more attention and spent more time in ideas...
