In my country, they use many motorbike, motorcycle to traffic. When we use motorbike oor motorcycle, they defecate more and more poison gas and dust. But in my country, motorbike is very comfotable to traffic because bus is not good, you can late your work time if you go by bus.

Yes it is comfortable to traffic and so much more if we use the electric motorbike or the so called e-bike, it does not only emit carbon monoxide but also it does not create loud noise.

Yes electric motorbike is not emit carbonmonooxide and other poison gas. I don't kwnow if we use e-bike it will well for environment or not? Because when we use e-bike, they need elctronic and electronic make from energy of water or by burn fuel... It emit carbon dioxide.

Yes, I think so, e-bike more save enegry. But could i ask you a question? When you charge, how far your e-bike can run? And how fast it run?

It depends upon the model, but the one I read can go 60 km and can run at 45 km/hr. As we can see it cannot replace the power, speed and the distance a gas bike can traveled. It is more of a within the city bike use only, and for me it is the mean disadvantage.

I think that people around the world should take the Dutch as an example. We should make the bicycle our favourite transport. This is realistic if we follow the example of the Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte who goes to work with his bicycle: http://www.daylife.com/photo/0dWh1FndSZdxz?__site=daylife&q=Mark+Rutte

When we visited Ho Chi Minh City in Vietnam in 2006, we were amazed at the number of motor bikes in the streets. We were told by our tour guide that there were 8 million people living there at that time, and that each resident had a motorbike. At first we had no idea How to cross the street because if the heavy motorbike traffic, but the guide told us,"Just step out and walk across, and don't worry!" We did, and were quite amazed at how easy it was to cross the street! We quite enjoyed Ho Chi Minh City!

If you live in my country, you do't want to have a car because traffic is blocked. And you must spend more time in street. Have a nice day!

That's bad if the public transport is slow. In my country it's a bit slow, too, but not that slow, I always use it when I'm travelling around (and then I can listen to my music :D). I don't even know when I'm going to have money to pass a drivers' exam, if I'm even going to (and I'm kind of scared I'd be a good driver... I'm easily distracted and stuff). Riding a bike would be good, too, but I have a hideous sense of balance.

i think that taking an e bike is a better solution for the environment. anything is better than the toxics that pollute our air, even here in the u.s. i though i saw e-bikes around my neighbor, but they look like someone just stuck a motor on their bike. lol. maybe i am mistaken. i must look that up because i want one.
• Vietnam

Yes I agree with you that a bike better for environment than motorbike. I want a e-bike too, but now I have a motobike and i am not enough money to buy a e-bike. LOL

we have the same here my friend. it's more easy to ride motorbikes. the traffic will be less but you'll go in office like you did not take a bath. smells pollution. we also use FX taxi. it's a public taxi with 10 seats. it has air conditioner that's why it's comfy but it will take minutes before you ride it. i don't go by bus. it will cause me hours before i arrive at work. have a good day!

the regular personal taxi is very expensive will take me hundreds before i reach work. but the one i use to ride the FX taxi is cheaper. 20.00 pesos only depending how far you'll travel. have a good day too!

It is a good kind of taxi. I want my country have the same kind of taxi. When we go to work by taxi there are not dust. LOL

Use taxi to go to work, it is a good idea. But with me, use taxi to go to work is very expensive and my salary not enough to pay. LOL Have a nice day!

Going by bus probably takes you too long. The bus routes are usually not straight. The buses may have to turn around in the targeted direction to get more passengers. If you ride a bike you may take a route which you think is shorter and quicker.

Yes, going by bus make more time than motorbike. I like to ride a bike too, but bike is only comfortable when we go a short distance. Thank for your comment. Have a good day!

I guess motorbikes now are becoming popular because of it's efficiency on fuel consumption. It's the same in my country. Almost every week gas prices goes up so many transport business asked for fare increase which could affect the budget fare of the riding public. I guess they can save more if they have their own bikes but because of the increasing numbers of motorbikes accidents involving motorbikes also increases.

Yes, the increse price of gas make price transport increase too. For me, i guess that when I use bus to transport is cheaper than i use motornike. But motorbike more comfotable than bus so i chose motorbike. Thank for your reply!

I can understand why. The traffic jam. The traffic system might not be good in your place and bike is the most convenient way to go.
• Vietnam
23 Apr 12
Yes, you are right. The traffic system in my city is not good so it is hard to transport if you use car.
• China

We are always sufferring traffic jam in our city especially at work-on and work-off time during week days.Only bus and subway for choice.
• Vietnam
19 Apr 12
Yes, the same in my city. The congestion of traffic when work-on and work-of. But in my city have no subway and many people use bus or go by foot to work.

hard to believe they are more poison as a car or bus is unless you drive old badly taken care motorcycles. No matter what kind of transport you use, it all needs are and be in good state/shape.
• Vietnam
18 Apr 12
I use motorbike to go to work. It is not poison as a car or a bus. So our government advice to limited car in my country. And a bus more poison than a motobike bus a bus can transport more than a motobike so that it is not poison than we use motobike or car.

hi, many people now have their own motorcycle here in my country,and they used it to transport and to avoid such heavy traffic on the road,they usually used motorcycle too for delivery because they are more faster to be in the place where the item should be deliver.
