Traffic Jam

     Talking about Brazil, everybody knows that the traffic is the mainly problem in our country because we don’t have infrastructure to support all the city’s cars on rush hour, there are so many cars on the streets when the population could take a public transportation, like subway, bus or train. It’s very precarious our transportation’s way because there’s no right time it pass, and it’s crowd in most times.

     Today, especially in São Paulo, people gets crazy when is necessary take some avenue to go to some place or just go home after work, as Marginal Tietê or Pinheiros because there’s a lot of cars there. This situation we find in a ‘normal’ day, but imagine in a rainy day… it’s impossible to go home until 9 pm (when there is no flooding). 
     There are some alternatives transports the population can use as the public ones, like subways, trains, or bus but as I already told you, the Brazil’s system related to transportation is precarious and it will still like this for a long time…
     When we want to take bus, some days we have to wait about 10 minutes, some days 30 minutes or about 1 hour. The buses here don’t have a right time to pass and this situation hinders people who need stay at work in a specific time.
     To change this situation, the government must really want it, not just doing some new laws related to this, but making it work… as improve new projects in trains and subways to benefit the population that needs this transport; take seriously the plate rotation in cars and punishing who doesn’t respect it, forcing them to pay about R$ 1.000,00 or something like this and etc.
     I think that the things will just change when the government starts to punish who doesn’t respect the laws and really understand the population’s condition, because everyone has a history about the transports… and you, do you have a history? Tell us…
