Cars: Passion or Problem

For some people, the car is a convenient form of transportation. But for others,

the car is an exciting hobby. Some people spend their lives collecting valuable

cars. Others drive them in races. For many people cars are more than

transportation: they are a source of passion and pleasure. Yet cars can also be a

source of many problems.

In 1903, Henry Ford began selling Model T car for $825. His company, Ford

Motors, was the first to produce cars in large numbers. This made the car available

to large numbers of people and helped them to travel long distances quickly and

easily. The car has brought people much closer to places of work, study, and

entertainment. Many people also work in car-related industries: fixing cars,

washing cars, advertising cars, and selling car products such as stereos and cellular

phones.

Most Americans buy a new car every five or six years. This means that one

American may own a dozen cars in a lifetime. In fact, there are more cars than

people in the United States. In New York City, 2.5 million cars move in and out of

the city each day. In this traffic, the average speed is sometimes 8.1 miles per hour.

This speed could easily be reached by riding a horse instead of driving a car. But

New Yorkers continue to drive, just as people do in California, where freeways are

often crowded. Many people are unhappy with car traffic and pollution, as well as

with the use of beautiful land for building new roads.

Cars are important to nearly everyone, including engineers, businesspeople,

environmentalists, and even poets. Poet Curt Brown believes that cars are part of

our passion for new places and new experiences. According to Brown, this “very,

very comfortable flying chair” will continue to bring us travel and adventure, no

matter how it changes the future.

Town planning

The purpose of a town plan is to give the greatest possible freedom to the

individual. The new development absorbs or modifies an existing environment,

and so before it can be designed it is necessary to find out about that environment.

It is also necessary to do research of population growth, the distance from work to

home, the preferences for different types of dwelling, the amount of sunshine in

rooms, the degree of atmospheric pollution and so on. After the survey is

complete a forecast of future development is made in the form of a map: the

master plan or development plan. The plan of the city must be flexible so that it

may extend and renew its dwellings, reconstruct its working places, complete its

communications and avoid congestion in every part.

The plan is never a complete and fixed thing, but one that is continually being

adapted to the changing needs of the community for whom it is designed. The flexible plan, preceded by a survey, is one of the most revolutionary ideas that man

has ever had about the control of his environment.

Most towns today have a characteristic functional pattern as follows: a central

core containing the principal shopping centre, business zones, surrounded by

suburbs of houses. Most town planners accept the traditional town pattern. In the

preparation of a master plan they are preoccupied with the definition of the town

centre, industrial areas, and the areas of housing; the creation of open space for

recreation, the laying down of a pattern of main roads which run between the builtup areas.

The master plan thus has to define the ultimate growth of the town, but though

the master plan is a diagram, and even a flexible one, it is the structure upon which

all future development is to take place.
