Taking Public Transportation or Driving Your Own Car

Nowadays we can see so many people use their own transportation than the public transportation, from here we can conclude why every big city in Indonesia always crowded in every morning for going to work or in evening going back from work. The car sales growth in 2012 to 2013 is 25%, which means that 7 cars per day has sold. If this situation is continues, not only environment will be damaged, human healthy will be damaged either. We have to understand the differences between using and your own car.

Time, so many Indonesian people always press their time to reach their work place, that’s why so many people running out the time and use their own car. In this case, people forget how far that their office is, they forget if the time is limited. They just speed up their car only to get there as soon as possible. The use of private transportation also give impact to commuting, due to the accumulation of private transportation than public transportation.

Cost, in this case the cost incurred is determined by how far, how many times we change transport, and what transportation we use. As with motorcycles the use of gasoline is 7500IDR pre liter and takes 2 liters every commuting, and if 1 month has reached 330.000IDR while using public transportation only need 10,000IDR for every commuting. It's just motorcycle, and it's not a car that's definitely more expensive. In this case we are able to distinguish which one is best for us.

Healty, on this side we can know the use of public transportation can make us more active than private transportation, we have walked or run to catch a public transportation that sometimes we are late to enter into it. While private transportation since we from our homes have been sitting and driving. On public transport also makes us think and wake up early so as not to leave behind the train or bus, this side that makes our body as if exercise than us using private transportation.

Based on my explanation above, we have to realize that both of them have benefits and lack, so you have to wise to choose. If your home near your destination place or your work place better you use public transportation, and contrast with that if your home far and there are no public transportation that you can reach you may use your own car or private transportation.
