Motorbikes are a nuisance and a cause for great distress. Even though TOPIC
motorbikes are considered as the most convenient from transportation, I think
they are a hazard to humans, animals as well as the environment. I think
motorbikes should be banned in housing areas due to the following reasons:
cause of unreasonable amount of noise, air pollution, diseases, and accidents.

First of all, I would like to point out that motorbikes are major contributor to the
pollution in the world. Research has shown that motorbikes emit a deadly gas
that is dangerous for environment. Consequently, long-term emission of gas
from motorbikes is a major contributor of global warming (Science Daily).

Secondly, according to a report from BBC, motorbikes are also responsible for
causing diseases such as bronchitis, cancer, and are a major trigger of asthma
and high blood pressure. Some of the disease are so ghastly that they can kill
people (BBC News, 2009).

Furthermore, motorbikes create so much noise. There is “vroom vroom” noise


everywhere. It is extremely difficult to sleep. Parents with infants find it
extremely challenging. The moment their babies fall asleep, one or other
motorbike passes by and the baby wakes up. It is also arduous for children to
concentrate on their homework. Experts are of opinion that if there is extreme
noise, it can lead to deafness and lack of concentration in children and adults
(Fields, 1993).

Finally, motorbikes are responsible for horrible accidents. In some cases, there
are death. Motorbike riders go so fast that they are unable to stop on time thus
they end up hitting other people or animals. Many a times a lot of animals ae
trampled and found death on road. Motorbikes are known to be the biggest
killers on road (Filled, 1993)

In conclusion, from the arguments above, I strongly believe that motorbikes


should be banned from housing areas.
