Hello. My name is Lucy. Last week I went to visit my friend Samantha in Spring
Town. That was my first visit to Spring Town, and I rode my motorbike to Samantha’s
house. Firstly I saw a No U-turn signal. So I had to ride forward until I see a U-turn signal.
I turned and kept riding, then I noticed the crossroad sign and check my map. I saw that I
had to turn left. But the red traffic light was on, and I had to wait for 60 seconds. I turned
left and I got stuck in a traffic jam. I waited there for nearly 15 minutes. There was a car
accident there, a car hit a motorbike and ran. At that time the motorcyclist was moved to
the hospital. I could keep my riding. Unfortunately, my phone was out of charge, so I could
not check my map and had to ask people there for route. After one hour and 02 times of
getting lost, I finally reached my friend’s home. It is unbelievable.
No.

Who are the best drivers? Which drivers are the safest on the roads? According to a recent
survey, young and inexperienced drivers are the most likely to have an accident. Older drivers
are more careful. Young men have the worst accident records of all. They often choose faster
cars with bigger engines. One of the most interesting facts in the survey is that passengers
have an effect on the driver. When young male drivers have their friends in the car, their
driving becomes worse. When their wife or girlfriend is in the car, however, their driving is
better. But this is not true for women. Their driving is more dangerous when their husband or
boyfriend is in the car. However, if their small children are riding in the car, they drive more
slowly and safely.
