What do you think about traffic jam? Is it sound terrifble to you?

Well, I hate traffic Jam. I am from Philippines. I am glad though that the traffic jam in our city is not as worse as that in the capital city of our country which I think is really terrible. It is among the reasons why I don't like going there. Anyway, if I'll just talk about the traffic jam here in our city, it is also so bad that I don't like to travel during peak hours.

hello luukimlong from vietnam, I will be visiting your country in oct. I heard it is very beautiful there and I am looking forward to my tripO Traffic jams are still a major problem, especially during peak hours in the morning when people go to work and at night when people go home. We do not get much jams here as we have a system to control cars and also electronic road pricing (taxes) for cars entering the business districts, I think it is quite effective as the price is expensive and we would take care to avoid the roads there and take another route. I think the government needs to think about ways to solve the problem, like control the number of cars, or driving licences approved, and the whole traffic system.

Yes it's horribly terrible! It gets worse and worse every year here in Indonesia (Jakarta)! Several years ago, traffic jam usually happened around 06:30 to 08:00 AM, and 05:00 to 07:00 PM. Now it gets worse! Not only the previous traffic jam schedule is expanding (twice the original time table), but also another "nightmare" schedule appears! Jakarta's highway will be full of cars at around 09:00 to 11:30 AM! It's frustrating, especially when I have to go somewhere in a hurry. I prefer going out with motorcycle nowadays.

I believe that this problem will be solved in the future. Traffic jam is the problem of All country over the world. It'll be solved quick or slow is depend on every person's minds.

it is the same problem we encounter most of the time here in the Philippines. It is i believe because of lack of discipline. I've been to Dubai for a year and didn't experience traffic jam even once. not only because there are less vehicles on the road but people obey by the traffic regulations.

yeah traffic jam is always come as a disaster to me. you got stress too much. once i get stuck in traffic jam for 6 hours! usually in normal day i spend only 2 hour, but at that time i get 6 hours traffic jam stuck. it makes me wanna angry you know? but what can i do? then i only try to deal with the situation, just try to enjoy and relax lol

Hello. Traffic jam is horrible in some places. My office is located in the busy downtown core of the city, and I have to go there every morning driving. I live in a suburban area outside the city core. The traffic jam really becomes so bad, so horrible. It is indeed a huge waste of time every morning getting to work and every evening getting back home.

There are traffic jams here in the US also. It is terrible and exhausting and wastes time, as you mentioned. I think the best thing you can do is work from home, or work near by your home so that you can walk or ride your bike. Another suggestion would be working avoiding those hours like from 12 to 10 pm.

Hello friend we all love our country and we cannot avoid traffic if no systematic solutions coming from the government. Because vietnam, like Philippines that have no plan about the structure of roads and streets. We as a lay citizen, in our respective countries. Don't have the ability to say suggestions because the government did not listen to us... Even if we have a good solutions to the problems. But we are not in the position to do so. I don't think it can help? Have a nice day!

well i really hate waiting in car, there was this one time that because of traffic the usual hour trip home has become a 4 hour trip home. in the car, im getting frustrated and such that i just want to scream.

I hate to traffic jams.. but sometimes i caught by traffic jams.. and it is too waste of time.. because once if you caught in jam.. then it will be at least 1 hours wasted.. so i always beware of these types of problems.. and also on FM i always listen that today where is the problem of traffic jam..

Just like you I also hate traffic jams. In our country (Philippines) it usually happens between 06:00 a.m. - 08:00 a.m. when people are rushing to go to work and school and between 04:00 p.m. - 07:00 p.m. when people are rushing to get home. The worst thing about traffic is that even if it only takes normally 15 - 20 minutes to get to the place you are going to it could take up to 1 hour to get to that place if there is a traffic. This is the reason I prefer to ride a train. At least there is no traffic. However, I also have to wake up early or else I would just be stuck in the train station waiting for train after train because usually trains are loaded. A lot of people also prefers to ride a train since it's faster.

Traffic jam is a worldwide problem. To remove this problem I think following steps should be taken: 1. Build up fly-over 2. Under ground train service 3. Strict traffic rule 4. Remove low speed vehicle from the street 5. Introducing LRT and Mono Rail( Malaysian )

I'm under the impresion that it is a common phenomenon in every country . if we want to solve this problem ,everyone should make contribution .ruduce the private cars amount on duty or off duty time .you can take a bus or underground to go to work,but the buses and underground must abide timetable.
