The advantages and disadvantages of public transport - Cristina Picón

What person has not ever taken public transport? I've been one of those people, and despite some problems you can have, I'm in favour.


Some people think the opposite. They say that sometimes it can be very expensive, especially if you take a taxi or have to travel a lot . Also, another thing some people say is that you can find very strange and unpleasant people, especially in the underground. Not only that but also you have to depend on timetables and if you're not careful you can miss your transport.


Some people say, however, totally different things. For example, they say public transport doesn’t pollute much, since you don’t take your own car. Also, you contribute to avoiding traffic jams and if that wasn't enough you save  money.
Finally another thing that people really like is that if you go to a party, you can drink and not have to drive and not have to find a place to park.


In my opinion, I agree with people who are in favour, because although public transportation has bad things, it also has  good things and these are good for the environment and people.
