major problem. This is obvious from the number of vehicles on the
roads and the amount of they cause. The traffic problem can be
due to individuals for work, study or shopping purposes and it's
evident in the rush hours we experience every morning and evening.
Such daily commuting is not necessary because people can do these
things from home with the help of technology. For instance,

society as a whole. So in conclusion, I think that online activities are
most to be an acceptable solution of the problem.

It is this factor which has greatly contributed to increased speeds.
