You should always look on both sides before stepping into the street.” “Do any of you ride a bike? Bicycle riders can cause accidents by changing directions suddenly or without warning other road users. Before you turn left, for example, you should check behind you to make sure there arent any cars, trucks or buses coming. You should show with your left hand to tell that you want to turn left. You should not turn until the street is clear.” “The rules of the road are very simple. If we learn them and obey(遵守) them, we should not have accidents any more.”56. The main idea of the story is .
