Speaker A. Driving requires concentration, attention and skills. Unfortunately some people do not fully realise how dangerous their car may be for themselves and to other people. Lots of accidents happen because the driver exceeds the speed limit or when the driver feels unwell or simply tired. However the worst thing is when drivers start competing with each other and have car races on the city roads.

Speaker B. I worked in an office for several years and after a while I got pretty bored with that. I wanted to change something in my life and this reminded me of my childhood dream of wanting to be a bus driver. "Why not" — I said to myself. Now I drive a large comfortable city bus. My route is through the centre of the city, which is nice in the quiet hours. In the daytime the traffic is heavy, but I enjoy it anyway.

Speaker C. Nowadays, people need to be very mobile. Public transport, like buses or the underground, is the best way to get from point A to point B in the city. They are relatively chap and safe. If you want, you can take a taxi or drive your own car. In some countries bicycles are becoming more and more popular. People prefer them to cars when they go to work or to a shop.

Speaker D. There're lots of cars on the streets of our cities and they're getting more and more of them. Too much available transport, however, may lead to accidents and unpleasant situations. Cars and buses may get stuck in traffic jams. Sometimes, careless drivers park their cars in the wrong places and it causes lots of inconvenience to the passerby and to other drivers.

Speaker E. I love driving and I always try to be very careful on the road. However, last Sunday was not my lucky day. I went to a nearby town to visit my grandma. Normally, it takes me about thirty minutes to get there, but on Sunday the road was blocked because of an accident. Then I was nearly hit by another car! Fortunately, the driver was stopped by the police and fined for dangerous driving.
