Rural transportation review in my district.
It's a well known fact that transportation is one of the most essential needs of man. As humans, they is always a need for us to: - visit our friends and relatives - go to our working places - transport our goods and services from one place to another - visit recreational and game center's etc. To be able to carryout the above listed activities successfully, we all need a means of transportation. More to that, thousands of people around the world are able to put food on their table through using cars, Napep (tricycle), and motorcycle to transport people from one district to another.
Here in my locality, we make use of tricycle and motorcycle to mobilize residents from one subdistrict to another. The motorcyclists and the tricycle driver's always park at the junction of every subdistrict to wait for passengers. As soon as they get passengers, they take off to the district where the passengers want to go.
