This section consisting of two questions were distributed to 50 respondents from various
faculty. The demographic details were on gender and faculty.
4.1 Gender
Gender

Female
33
Male
0 5 10 15 20 25 30 35
To classify the gender of the respondents, we used the help of bar chart to have
a better visual understanding of it. Our respondents are more to male than female with
33 and 17 respondents respectively.
4.2 Faculty
Figure 4.2 shows respondents from various faculty responded to our questionnaire.
In this section we will be looking at the preferences of personal transportation against public
transportation. This is due to analysing our first objective which is to study the reason why
students prefer using personal transportation than public transportation. For this section, there
are three questions which our respondents need to answer.
The pie chart in Figure 4.3 above shows the statistics of preferable transportation for
students to go to their university.
20%
Yes
No
80%
This pie chart was constructed in order to determine which one is more
preferable for students whether personal transportation or public transportation. Out of
50 respondents, 80% of them use personal transportation and the remaining 20% use
public transportation to go to classes.
4.4 The use of Personal Transportation over Public Transport.
Figure 4.4 shows the reasons for respondents using personal transportation than public
transport.

With the aid of pie chart, it can be analysed that the highest respondents were
answered to “I can get to my destination faster” with 40 respondents meanwhile 27 of
respondents love using personal transportation because they can go to multiple stop.
Besides for the “Because sharing a car with my friends is easier” and “Other” option
received the lowest vote with 11 and 0 respondents respectively. This indicated that
majority of respondents considered the time taken to their destination seriously. This
difference shows that student chose personal transportation over public transport
because the factor of efficiency.

choosing public transportation.

By constructing this pie chart it help us to determine the most common reason
of why students likely to avoid taking public transportation. Based on the pie chart
constructed, we found out that a lot of respondents did not prefer public transportation
because it is really time consuming. 42% of them believe that they need to wait for a
long time in order to wait for a bus to arrive. Then, 28% of our respondent facing the
problem of unavailability of public transportation in their living area. 26% of our
respondent also not very fancy with crowded bus or public transportation as this makes
them feel very uncomfortable. Only 4% respondents think taking public transportation
