Some people think that usage of cell pone in the public trasportations may hinder others by maikng noise. However, I disagree with their opinions in that it is neccesary that people use thier cell phone in the public transportaions because a few reasons. I can mention that there are two major reasons for this.
First, it is helpful that people solve the emergent problem. Five years ago, there was an aweful accident casued by big fire in the subway, which is across the capital of Korea. There were many people in there to commute one place to others, since the subway was one of the important transportations in Seoul, a capital of Korea. When they found the fire and felt threaten of death, they made a call to 911 by using the cell phones. If no one had the cell phones or the usage of a cell phone was prohibited, it was impossible to ask the help to 911. Moreover, they were in extreme bad situation as much as feeling the death, they made a call to their family and friends to say good bye. Therefore, when it comes to possibility of asking the help from emergent situation, people should be allowed to use the cell phones in the public trasportations.
Second, to people who live in fast changed environment by technology, it is beneficial that people use the cell phones anywhere including the public trasportations. Todays, the world is so changing quickly that it is neccessary and important for people to take information and knowledge to take the competitive advantages. As technolongy is also improved in high speed, people can obtain information through the Internet from not only the computer but the cell phone. Also, it is possible to gain information through communication with others on the cell phone. When my friend was supposed to buy a house through aution, it was very important for him to recognize how competitors would be betting. Before he arrived the place for auction, he could take information by making a call on the cell phone.
In sum up, I think that people are allowed to use cell phones in the public transportations in that it is very useful in emergent situation and valuable to gain information quickly and properly. Therefore, usage of cell phones in the public trasportations should not be prohibited. |
