Bus nowadays has become a popular means of transport. Commuters choose bus as they find many advantages of this transportation, however some people never step on a bus when they hear about the disadvantages and dangers from the bus. As a regular bus commuter, I well know these two aspects of buses, which I am going to mention below.Some good points from the bus- the public transportation.People especially students choose bus as a good means of transport because it is an economic way of traveling. For instance, a bus ticket to move around Hanoi, the capital of Vietnam, is only 3,000 vnd for each person no matter how long or short their distance is. It is even much cheaper when the customer have a monthly ticket which just costs 80,000 vnd per commuter and 50,000 vnd per student and they can travel as many times as possible with the ticket. Money saving is therefore the main the reason why the bus attracts so many customers.The second advantage the bus brings to us is that the bus-traveler can avoid adverse weather effects and pollution. The high temperature in summer or extreme cold in winter seems to make the motorbike drivers and bikers uncomfortable in moving on roads. In stead, sitting on a bus with the average temperature can help the customers avoid bad impacts of severe climate. In addition, people will be free from dust and smokes when they travel by bus. Your is easily damaged under sun light and dust from means of transport It is very common to catch sight of many people with a piece of cloth on their face to protect themselves from lung disease which is caused by dust.The last good aspect of the bus is to reduce traffic jam and congestion in rush hour. Clearly, a bus can transport nearly 100 people in small space, many buses means thousands of people and it greatly contribute to the traffic jam reduction.Some bad points the bus brings to us.Time is a point that you should take into consideration before traveling by bus. Many passengers suffer from waiting for very long time to catch a bus, it means they can be late for school, office or a very important interview. Normally, the passengers can control the time if they regularly travel by bus, but a crowded bus can pass your bus stop and go straight especially in peak hours when school and office stop working. Therefore, bus is not a good choice if you must be punctual.Burglars on bus are another disadvantage of commuting by this public transport in Vietnam. Money, purses, mobile phones are the common aims of thieves. They take advantages of the crowd, when there are too many people standing on the bus in a limited space and the other passengers are not vigilant.There are also so many accidents happened on the bus. When passengers go up or down and the driver is not careful enough to open and close the door, accidents are easy to occur.
