Every year several thousand people die in the car accidents in Great Britain, and more than one hundred thousand people are hurt.
There are rules to make roads safe, but people do not always obey(遵守) the rules. They are careless. If everybody obeys the rules, the roads will be much safer. How can we make roads safer?
Remember this rule. In Great Britain traffic keeps to the left. Cars, buses and bikes must keep to the left side of the road. In most other countries traffic keeps to the right.
Before crossing the road, stop and look at both sides. Look right and left. Then, if you are sure that the road is clear, it is safe to cross the road. If you see small children or very old people, help them to cross the road. We must teach our children to cross the road safely. We must always be a good example. Small children must not play in the street.
