ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES SAMPLE ESSAY – Teacher Douglas

Lately, there has been a growing trend towards owning a bicycle here in Phnom Penh. More and more
people are starting to use them for both commuting and health. There are many benefits to owning a
bicycle, but there are also some drawbacks. This essay will discuss some of these.

One of the main advantages is that riding a bicycle is good for your health. Riding a bicycle requires you
to do exercise and get your heart rate up. This then leads to your cardiovascular health improving over
time. Another advantage is that it’s a cheap form of transportation, as it doesn’t require any fuel.

On the other hand, one of the biggest drawbacks is that it can be quite dangerous to ride a bicycle.
There is a lot of traffic nowadays, such as big trucks and cars, and during the day it can be quite difficult
to successfully navigate the traffic. Furthermore, at night time, there are a lot of drunk drivers speeding
around, and they might not see you on a bicycle, so if you get hit by a car, you will probably get seriously
injured, or worse, die.

In conclusion, riding and owning a bicycle is good for your health and is also cheap, but it can also be
dangerous. In my opinion, however, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages, and I encourage
everyone to get a bicycle!
