In recent years, city cycling has become very popular across the country as a fun and healthy activity. Some people even join groups to go cycling together. They often go on long bike rides, thinking it's good exercise for both body and mind. However, they sometimes pay no attention to the possible dangers.
On August 11, 2024, a very sad accident happened in Baoding, Hebei Province. A father was taking part in a cycling group activity with his 11-year-old son on a busy road. They were going very fast, at the speed of more than 37 km/h. Because of the fast speed and crowded group, the child fell off his bike while trying to keep up with the others. Unluckily, he was hit by a car coming from the other direction. The child was badly hurt and died later.
This sad event should make all cyclists think more about safety and follow the cycling rules. There are some things we must do to prevent this kind of accident.
●Parents should warn their kids of road safety and stop them from riding in dangerous places or racing on the road. As we all know, the laws say that children under 12 are not allowed to ride bikes on public roads.
●Cycling groups and government officials need to make sure cycling events are well- managed and safe.
Life is very important, and we must always think about safety. If everyone takes it seriously, we can prevent accidents as many as possible.
