Currently although there are many negatives towards personal motorized transport these are out weighed by reasons to use it. For example, bus's can often come at inconvenient times or even perhaps stop running by the time you need it, not only this but you often have to set off for your destination about 30 Min's earlier to ensure you get there on time. Not only this but at some places public transport is actually more expensive than it would be to drive and so not only is it a inconvenience but also more expensive, this then does not encourage anyone to use more sustainable methods of transport.
Therefore to encourage more sustainable transport they need to lower the costs and have them run more frequently to make it more convenient for people.
Secondly even by doing this many people are unlikely to do this as they still have to go out of their way to get to public transport, so the government should encourage large companies that have people many employees working 9-5 throughout the week to do car sharing by finding individuals who live in nearby areas to each other, they could do this by limiting parking to only being avaliable to those who car share or by rewarding them in some way. This then cuts down on money and petrol being used, whilst still being convenient and rewarding people for doing so, this could then cut down on the amount of cars on the road.
