One mistake that schools and parents often make is to think thatit'S not necessary to teachtraffic laws( 交通法规 )until the child is old enough to drive a car . Some children die in traffic onbikes before then because theyhaven ’ t learned traffic laws . Many children become baddrivers evenafter they are old enough to drive . They thinkthey know traffic laws when they don ’ t . Some peopledon ’ tknow the laws for bike travel because they didn ’ t learn the laws as children . For example . Ihave been told several timesthat a car has the right of way over a bike because it is bigger and fas 。 ter . In our traffic laws there is no mentionof the bigger , faster vehicle( 车辆 )havingthe right ofway!But we do have a law saying that the slower vehicle must keepto the fight for the faster vehi-cle to pass . While they are young , children mustbe taught to follow traffic laws . They mustn ’ t runacrossthe street in front of a car , and they must stopat a red light when riding their bikes . They need toknowthat breaking traffic laws will bring them trouble .
