Traffic problem

The traffic problem always bothers the people who live in the city. It is big issues for now and future. It is caused by few main points below. The largest traffic problem is the serious shortage of parking space because of the low quality of bus service. And there is no enough rapid transit system in Taipei; therefore, the most of people buy cars for themselves. It lets Illegal parking further aggravates the traffic situation.

Second problem is the careless pedestrian. Most people like to take short cuts by jaywalking instead of using the crosswalks. This situation is easy for terrible accidents occurred. We can see a lot of accidents from the TV news. Especially the truck hit the people due to the over speed. In addition, careless Taxi drivers also is the another issue. They usually ignore the traffic signals, sound their horns, and change lanes at random. That is why I always leave the TAXI far away.

Bicycling people become more and more in Taiwan. Have you ever ride the bicycle on the road in Taipei? What kind of the feeling that you felt? I heard about the rider complained. Most of the riders feel the road is not safe enough to ride. Even though it is the green activity that government promoted, it bring both driver complained due to no efficiency solution for the people who on the road. It is also the one of the chaos problem of the traffic.
