During the summer vacation, children's enthusiasm for travel and play is high, and minors riding alone or together has also increased significantly. It is understood that holidays have always been a period of high incidence of traffic accidents among minors, among which bicycle and electric bicycle accidents are at a high level. Parents and guardians of students must strengthen their children's traffic safety education, supervision and other work. When going out to play, they must pay attention to traffic safety. Do not ride at a young age, ride motorcycles, and electric bicycles without wearing safety helmets, without fastening safety buckles, illegally carrying people, and riding modified vehicles.
Many people know that they are not allowed to drive a motor vehicle under the age of 18, but they often ignore that driving bicycles on the road must be at least 12 years old, including shared bicycles! Driving an electric bicycle must be at least 16 years old. Liu Ning, a police officer from the Third Brigade of Nanjing Traffic Police, told reporters: "Some parents will also have questions. How can children under the age of 12 learn to ride a bicycle? They must learn to drive a bicycle in a closed venue and a closed area."
In daily life, children's guardians also need to strengthen their own traffic safety knowledge learning, even for children who have reached the age of 12 and can ride electric bicycles at the age of 16. Strengthen education, master their travel routes and destinations, and stop their violations of traffic laws in a timely manner.
