第四天Inconsiderate Drivers
Some people are inconsiderate drivers. In the city,they will at times stop right in the middle of the street while looking for a certain home or
landmark. If they had any consideration for the cars behind them,they would pull over to the curb first. Other drivers will suddenly slow down
unexpectedly at a city intersection to make a right or left turn. The least they could do is use their turn signals to let those behind them know in advance of their intention. On the highway,a common example of inconsiderateness is night drivers who fail to turn off their high beams,creating glare for cars approaching in the other direction. Other rude highway drivers move to the second or passing lane and then stay there,making it impossible for cars behind to go around them. Yet other drivers who act as if they have special privileges are those who do not wait their turn in bottleneck situations where the cars in two lanes must merge
alternately into one lane. Perhaps the most inconsiderate drivers are those who throw trash out their windows,creating
litter that takes away some of the pleasure of driving and that must be paid for with everyone's tax dollars.
第四天 轻率的司机
有一些驾车者不会替人考虑。在城中他们会不时把车就停在街道中间。为了寻找某栋房子或地标,如果他们能考虑到后面的车辆,他们就应该先把车停在路边。另一些驾车者会在十字路口出人意料地突然减速以便左转或右转。他们最起码应该打转向灯以让他们后面的人事先知道他们的意图。在高速公路上,常见的自私的例子就是司机晚上行车不关他们的远光灯,使得强光直射对面驶来的汽车。另一些的粗鲁的司机驶入第二车道或超车道并停在那里,使得后面的车辆无法绕道而过。另外一些司机好像他们有某种特权,当两条车道的车辆必须先后驶入一条车道时,他们不会等轮到他们才开。或许最轻率的司机就是那些往窗外扔垃圾的人,他们制造的垃圾会减少驾驶的乐趣,而且还要用纳税人的钱去清除。
