[单项选择] Too Many Cars Everyone agrees that there are simply too many cars on the read but who will be the first to stop using theirs Although everyone hates being stuck in traffic, no-one sees their cars as part of the growing problem. However, with traffic growth of up to 84 per cent expected by 2031 and the ever-increasing cost of accidents and delays already at ＄160bn in Europe, there is a growing need to change our ’car culture’ and develop alternative forms of transport as quickly as possible. One answer is to make cars more expansive by increasing taxes on patrol. However, tax increases will affect the people who live in the country more than city drivers and do little to reduce inner city traffic. The Government is also looking at pay-as-you-drive schemes on motorways but this will push cars on to smaller ’free’ roads, which will make the problem worse. A successful transport policy is not just a question of making the car tee expensive but of offering car drivers a real alternative. Many motorists dislike driving to work but say public transport services are too slew, offer poor quality and are far too expansive. If new transport policies are to succeed, public transport needs to be quick, reliable and affordable. Transport planners are also developing ways of managing the existing road network more efficiently. New technology such as smart cards and electronic monitoring of roads will lead to a more efficient use of transport systems. However, technology will not reduce the number of cars on the road or solve the real problem of how to persuade car drivers to leave their beloved cars at home more often. Pay-as-you-drive schemes will reduce the amount of traffic on motorways.（　）
