Good morning Sherifatbidemi. I've skimmed through your essay, and it is nowhere near as good as your previous one, although you have done justice to the theme.

You have a good command of the English language, and your sentence structure is very good.

It's early here in Germany and I have to go out with my dogs for their morning walk.
I will do a little work on your essay when I return.

By the way, I wouldn't consider a taxi as public transport. True, it is available to all members of the public, but it does not contribute in the lessening of congestion on the roads.

Bye for now.

Kitos.
