Beatriz - Pros and cons

THE ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES OF HAVING A CAR


Firstly, having a car is very good., . The car is much faster than the bus and is more comfortable. Sometimes you can be alone or with someone. If you are stressed [E1] you can relax listening to music, news etc.

The car helps people do many things, for example, go to the supermarket, doctor, vet, dentist, and others.

And the best is traveling to many places.

However, having a car has many disadvantages, such as buying a car is very expensive, . The car is very dangerous in the roads and it can cause be some accidents, or be stolen. Also, you can get stuck in traffic, or have to take bus or taxi.

Sometimes they cause accidents because the driver was drunk.

You must have a driver’s license, pay licensing, the car insurance, annual review. Also, you must pay for adding fuel, to washing the car and other things.

Having a car is very expensive.

Despite the disadvantages, I still prefer having a car because I live in a city where public transportation is very bad and not safe.

But in the near future, when the metro lines are increased I intend to leave the car.

This is almost certain in my mind.
