The impact of transportation to human survival is enormous, for example transportation creates jobs for drivers, pilots, seafarers , engineers, spare part sellers, mechanics. food sellers and so on.

transpotation open up new markets and opportunities, it facilitates international trade through the use of container ships for world wide distribution of goods and services. air transport allows for faster travelling from one continent to another.

Transportation creates innovation in the technological sector by bringing about the use of information communication technology which brings about intelligent transport system where computers are deploy in the transportation vehicle like the adoption of global position system to track vehicles, self operating vehicles, infra red and so on.

As good as transportation is, it has a negative impact to the environment and societies for example carbon emission, pollution, accidents, congestion, parking problem and disruption of settlement through land use in the construction of roads, ports both sea port and air port, construction of railway line and so on.

Lastly, the various modes of transport are : land transport (cars, trains,) water transport ( Ships, boat canoes etc) air transport (airplanes, space craft, balloon), conveyor belt (transportation of materials within an industrial complex) pipeline transport for transporting liquid like crude oil, petrol, water, gas, chemicals and others.

The marvel of engineering and technology. No part of the world is far now. It took more than 5000 years to reach from the wheel to the supersonic jets.
