Illegal(违法的) driving
is really dangerous. It may cause traffic accidents, even deaths. It's reported
that thousands of people die from illegal driving each year. Many countries are
trying their best to control it. France, for example, has made some strict
rules and laws to stop it.
People are warned not to eat while driving.
Any driver who is caught eating while at the wheel will be stopped by the
police. Then he will be fined up to £50 for it.
Drivers are not allowed to read a map, make a
phone call or listen to very loud music while driving. Besides it is against
the rules for the motorists to use any kind of earphones. Things change easily
on the road. Drivers never know what will happen next.
From July 2 on, it will be illegal to smoke when
there is a child aged 12 or under in the car. Smoking is also banned(禁止) outdoors at children's play areas, including those at motorway
rest areas. Notices in several languages have been put up at motorway service
stations to warn foreign visitors of the rules.
Driving after drinking can put people in danger.
All the drivers are asked to carry alcohol breath test equipment(酒精测试仪) in their cars. Anyone who breaks the rule will be punished.
