Immigrating to Australia requires learning to obey traffic rules.

In life in Australia, whether you are driving or not, traffic rules must be observed. Because the traffic in Australia is very characteristic, and because it is a Commonwealth country, drivers of cars drive on the right, and most of the streets turn right. Contrary to our car driving and traffic in China, there are very few cars and people on the streets, and the traffic is very orderly. When I think of China, this scene seems to have been seen more than ten years ago. Australians obey the traffic rules very much. When crossing the road, pedestrians must use pedestrian lanes, because the traffic laws in Australia are very strict, and it is very dangerous to violate the rules. But if you obey the rules, even if you cross the road very slowly, the car will have to wait for you. Red light: stop driving. Don't run the red light. If the traffic light opposite shows green? WALK? , and there are signs of pedestrians or bicycles before passing. But you must get off the bus and push it from the crosswalk.

yellow light: under normal circumstances, don't run the yellow light. However, if it is not safe to stop because it is very close to the yellow light and it has just changed from green light to yellow light, you should pass the yellow light quickly. If it is a flashing yellow light or an arrow, please be alert.

green light: yes. Pass under the condition of ensuring safety. Choose the safest place to cross the road. For example, there are crosswalks or traffic lights, or any place where drivers can see pedestrians and pedestrians can see drivers at the same time; It is recommended to cross the road where there are crosswalks or traffic lights.

in the process of crossing the road, we should follow the following rules: stop, observe the traffic conditions, look at the right first, then the left and then the right, listen to the sound of approaching vehicles, wait for a safe time, and then pass quickly. Try to cross the road with many others; Try to cross the road by the shortest route; Give yourself enough time to pass; You should be more cautious when crossing the road after drinking; At night, the driver's visibility is low. If there are no signs that allow you to walk through, please wear or carry brightly colored clothes or articles to cross the road under the street lights if possible. Red? DON'T WALK? Or the red one? Pedestrian? Signal, indicating that you can't cross the road; Yellow traffic lights are not allowed to cross the road unless there is green? WALK? Or the green one? Pedestrian? Signal; Green? WALK? Or the green one? Pedestrian? Signals can cross roads.

86 Remind new immigrants to be on high alert when living in Australia when faced with flashing yellow lights or arrows.

1. The column at the end of the crosswalk is equipped with a pedestrian traffic management indicator dial. After pressing it, wait for the opposite indicator to display; When the red light turns green, it is accompanied by a voice prompt, and then it can pass safely.

2. even if it is? WALK? , but also be vigilant, especially just from? DON'T WALK? Become? WALK? Be sure that the driver has slowed down and has the intention to stop, because at a big intersection with a long red light time, be wary of drivers speeding up the red light.

Apart from the beautiful scenery and beautiful weather, the traffic problem is the most impressive thing about life in Australia. In order to ventilate, I will sleep with the window open at night, and I will often be awakened by a very loud motor sound; Walking on the road during the day, you will also be disturbed by all kinds of speeding cars. Think about the frequent occurrence of traffic problems among China students in recent years, ranging from minor injuries to life-threatening. Therefore, I sincerely remind all students studying abroad with my Chinese teacher that traffic awareness cannot be ignored!

Another dangerous place is the seaside. Students should pay attention if their swimming skills are not very good. In addition, remember the emergency number: (fire alarm, ambulance).
