Alternative forms of transportation
What if we don’t want to drive a car to work every day? What could we do instead to get around town? Many people are thinking of alternative (or other) ways of traveling. Of course, we are all familiar with cars, but we don’t have to drive our cars every day of the week. There are other choices.
One idea is to drive a car only a few days each week instead of every day. If we joined a carpool we could do that. Then there would be fewer cars on the road.
Another idea is to ride a bicycle to work as often as possible. We would get lots of fresh air and exercise. Some places even offer bicycle sharing. Instead of buying your own bicycle, you can borrow one for a specific period of time.
