 Transportation Technology
Transportation technology is a technology
that is able to support the transfer of people
or items from one place to another by using a
vehicle that is driven by humans or machines.
The development of transportation before
the era of industrialization began with the
discovery of the wheel in about 3500 BC
which was used to facilitate the movement of
goods. this technology continues to develop
to produce vehicles that have sophistication
and comfort for the rider.
There are three types of transportation :
- Land transportation
- Water transportation
- Air transportation
 The Impact of Transportation
Technology
Positive Impact :
- For the people in the countryside, transportation is very much needed in channeling
agricultural, plantation and livestock products to the cities
- Shorten travel time
- Carbon monoxide gas from motor vehicles when reacting with oxygen in the air will
produce carbon dioxide gas that can be utilized in the process of photosynthesis in
plants
Negative Impact :
- Petroleum is increasingly scarce
- Air pollution and sound pollution
- Decreased agricultural area due to increased construction of transportation facilities
