Don’t worry about cycling, there’s no time to brake!

The road is not a racing field or a handsome “show ground”.

As minors, it is necessary to strictly abide by various traffic rules and listen to the words of parents and teachers.

This is definitely not a alarmist statement by adults, but a practical lesson…

On May 13, 2023, at 8:5 am, when Li (14 years old) was driving a two wheel electric bicycle in the south to north direction of Huafan Road in Longhua District, he collided with Hu’s small car, causing Li to fall to the ground and be injured, A road traffic accident in which two vehicles were partially damaged.

We can see that as a minor under the age of 16, Li violated the rules by driving an electric bicycle, not only without wearing a helmet, but also walking in the motorway and running red lights.

Although Li had already taken braking measures at the moment he saw the motor vehicle, he still couldn’t wait for the moment when he fell to the ground, which was heartbreaking and infuriating.

Why did he remind people so many times and still refuse to listen to advice and insist on “experiencing” it in order to be satisfied? Every traffic participant is the first person responsible for their own safety.

Shenzhen Traffic Police once again emphasizes that students, parents, and teachers should take the case as a reference.

Children under the age of 16 are not allowed to ride electric bicycles.

According to the Implementation Regulations of the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People’s Republic of China, driving electric bicycles must be at least 16 years old.

Minors have poor emergency response capabilities and relatively weak safety awareness, while electric bicycles have faster speeds and higher risk factors.

Once an accident occurs, the consequences are often unpredictable.

Teenagers under the age of 16 have collided with a motor vehicle while cycling in the motorway.

Teenagers under the age of 16 ride electric bikes and knock down children on skateboards.

Teenagers under the age of 16 who ride electric bicycles and injure sanitation workers.

When riding with a helmet on, some cyclists may think that wearing a helmet is “not cool at all” when riding an electric bicycle without taking the motorway.

But helmets are necessary equipment to protect riders, not optional “decorations”.

The correct way to wear a helmet is for electric bicycles as non motorized vehicles to use non motorized lanes.

Each traffic participant must go their own way to ensure everyone’s safety.

Electric bicycles cross the road on the motorway and are knocked down by a motor vehicle.

Electric bicycles walk on the motorway and knock down pedestrians on zebra crossings.

In addition, when riding an electric bike, one should also pay attention not to go in the wrong direction or run red lights.

Children, life is their own and there is only one time to take traffic safety seriously.
