BH have too much cars in traffic everyday, and when we see inside those cars, most of them with just the driver or only one passenger max.
We
are used to be “selfish” when the subject is drive to work and come back home.
We say things like: ‘I already wake up too early, I can’t change my schedule at
work’ or ‘my route is already too long, I can’t make any change in my
itinerary’. This is rooted in our culture and will be hard to change it, but is
necessary.
The population needs to understand that
everybody loses time because of traffic jams. If each one starts to offer rides
for colleagues at work and settle a just price for help with gas, I believe
that we will have better traffics for many years, and in this mean time the government
has to work on solutions for new subway lines and bicycle paths.
Its an excellent idea, 5 people in 1 car instead of 5 cars is going to help a lot of the traffic.
ReplyDeleteGreat post. There are some apps for you give or get a ride!
ReplyDeleteThe mentality of people is changing. I worked as a Uber driver. And many passengers told me that they sold their cars to use only Uber.
