  1. Answer the following questions:

  1. Most of the cars in traffic jam ‘are occupied only by one driver’. Why isn’t it ‘a rational way of getting from A to B’?

  2. Why do so many people favour private cars over public transport?

  3. What could be done to make people use public transport instead of their cars?

  4. What is door-to-door travel?
