ENGLISH COMPREHENSION

Road Safety

Road safety refers to methods and steps taken to reduce the danger of people using the road being killed or injured. Users of the roads are pedestrians (people who are walking), motorists (people driving cars and other vehicles), cyclists (people riding bicycles), passengers (people driving cars and other vehicles).

To use the roads safely, road users should follow the road safety rules.

A pedestrian should use the zebra crossing when crossing a busy road in the city. Where there is no zebra crossing, use the pedestrian bridge. You should look at both sides of the road carefully before crossing a busy road. No one should use the phone or read newspaper while crossing a road.

Drivers should also follow road traffic safety rules: they should always take their drivers license and other car documents with them when they drive. A driver should not drink alcohol before or while driving. He should not drive under the influence of drugs. A driver should obey all traffic signals, lights and signs. A driver should not use the phone. A driver should always use the seat belt in his car. He should not drive when he is tired.
