Driving cars, trucks and motorcycles is
an important part of our lives. We do it every day to get to work, to school or
to friends' houses. Driving can be very convenient, but can also
cause many problems. Waiting in line at a red light, a driver may get impatient
and decide just to drive fight through it. If another car is coming from the
other direction, there might be a terrible accident. Cutting another car off can
make its driver angry, so that driver cuts off someone else. Pretty soon
everybody is angry, and impatient. Traffic accidents declare
millions of lives every year worldwide. In Taiwan alone, over seven people are
killed in accidents every day. The annual death rate (年死亡率) from traffic
accidents in Taiwan is twice that of Japan. To allow traffic to
move smoothly and safely, everybody must follow the rules. Before you drive,
learn all the traffic laws. That way of driving is safe, convenient and even
fun!
