[交流] Are we ready for a new era?

As we see, China is entering an era on wheels now.

More and more people, or families have cars now, and many are still considering buying a car.

This is much different from we ride bikes, walk.

And, are we ready for entering such a new era?

I would like to say, NO.

Why did I say no? There are the following reasons,

i) We do not have enough roads for cars. The original cities are designed for cars, bikes and pedestrians, but not for private cars. So, as we bought so many private cars, the cities became jammed. So, I think the primary reason why traffic jam is so severe in many cities in China is that, we have too many cars, but not enough road.

ii) Not enough traffic facilities to reduce risk of cars, such as traffic lights, stop signs.

iii) We are not well educated about the risk of cars. For the present exam system for driver licence, it is very difficult to pass it, but it does not emphasize enough how to keep the driver him or herself and others safe.  

Often, when I get on a taxi and put on the safety belt, the drive will say, it is OK not to put on the belt, the police will not fine you.

So, did you put on saftety belt when you ride a car?

Did you let your child who is less than 12 years old sit on the seat beside the driver in a car?

I think many worms will say yes to the second question, while many will say no to the first one.

On May 29, one of my students left this world for ever, in a car accident.

Four people were killed in that accident, neither of them wore a safety belt.

So, in order to welcome an era on wheeels, we have to build more roads, set up more traffic signs, educate more cautious drivers and car-riders, only in this way, we can have safe, efficient car transportation in China.

It seems that the title does not fit well with the essay. But it is interesting to raise such question from what you saw from the traffic system and driving habit in China. Indeed, we are not ready t ...

Hehe, thank you!

We are still faraway from being developed.

you are right.i believe you,but i do not wear a safety belt.

I think, the first thing you should do after you get in a car is to put on your safety belt.

Ready or not, we are already in this era ! And the problem with exessive cars is the pollution. As we are all very familiar with PM2.5 , one of the common source is the waste of car and others contai ...

Yes, pollution is another problem.

How to keep the environment clean?

a new era? do you know the meanings of the word of era ,a better living condition is the sign of a new era ?even though every of us own plenty of wealth, without a clear, beautiful soul, can we decla ...

I would like to copy the explanation of era from a dictionary here, for your reference,

i) a, a fixed point in time from  which a series of years is reckoned. b, a memorable or important date or event, esp: one that begins a new period in the history of a person or thing ii)a system of chronologicla notation computed from a given characteristic feature. iii) a: a period identified by some prominent figure or characteristic feature. b: a stage in development, sep one of the four major divisons of geologic time.

Here, I mean iii) a.

Did I make a mistake?

Thank you!

Beacuse our cities have so many people, land to us is such limited. Building more roads is a great challenge.

Yes, so public transportation is very important for us. We need more efficient buses and tubes.

More licences are authorized, maybe more potential killers on the road. Sometimes to own a car is not necessary, but only a sign of status. And the drivers that are not well-educated or get admitted  ...

In fact, it is more difficult to get a licence in China than in many countries. So, why many people die on road is still a problem.

It depends on the cultivation of the drivers which can not be learned or changed in merely a month. They say Chinese are impatient or not considerate in public especially on road. Everybody thinks h ...

Yes, we should be more patient, polite and calm.
