Language Arts -8H Cole Bollinger Process Analysis 11-4-11 How to Navigate Without a Car You may not believe this, but there are other ways to go around our city without having a car. The roads in the USA are very overcrowded with a one to four ratio of cars to people. Why do we have so many cars, and why do we use them so much? Believe it or not there are three different other ways to go around our city without having a car, walking, biking, and riding a bus. There are other ways but these are definitely the main ones. We are lucky to have so many bike lanes in Louisville. These work well so you can ride your bike on a main road. All you have to do for this one is first get a bike. After that find a bike lane and you’re off. This is a good way to get around town since you’re treated like you’re in a car, even though you’re on a bike. Louisville is a great city to ride your bike in because you can ride just about anywhere. I am sure you have noticed all of the bus stops we have in our city. Those bus stops really do help people get around in an efficient way. You can find your route and you are almost set to get on a bus. After that you just have to locate the bus. Find out if you need to transfer to another bus after you get on the first bus. Of course you also have to pay the money to get on the bus in the first place. Walking is another option, because we also have so many sidewalks. On the side of the roads are billions of sidewalks. If you do choose to walk, make sure you stay on the sidewalk. I know that seems weird since why would you not stay on the road, but there have been many car accidents with walkers. Stop at all the lights and wait for your turn. You also have to know the way to your destination. This may take longer than bus or bike, but it works just as well. If you have to get somewhere at a certain time, make sure you leave enough time to get there if you walk. The is definitely important since in the car it could take you five minutes while walking takes 45 minutes. Yes cars are nice, but there are other ways of travel. Biking, Busing, and Walking are only a few ways to travel without using a car. We all know that our roads are way too overcrowded. We rely on cars too much. We need to start learning a different way of getting around our city. That will also help with us using too much gas. Just always remember there are ways to navigate without using a car.
