Road safety advice for foreigners
Program Code: 0909346160405002
BRINGING foreign e-bikers up to speed on the city’s traffic laws is the aim of a new police education initiative.
As many foreign offenders are students, officers have joined forces with Shanghai International Studies University officials to distribute “road safety notices” in English, Russian, Japanese and Korean on the campus.
The notice, part of a three-month road safety campaign that started last month, lists the 10 most frequently committed traffic offenses committed in the city.
University official Zhou Bo said many foreign students have inquired about traffic rules in the past.
“Foreign students are not very well informed about traffic laws and rules in China, and we hope through this effort they can be better prepared to avoid traffic offenses,” he said.
A student from Turkey was stopped by the police on the campus yesterday and told that he could be fined for riding a plateless e-bike.
He told Shanghai Daily: “I was not sure if it had a plate or not because it belongs to my friend.”
In Hongkou District alone, over 20 foreign e-bike riders have been fined in the past month, mostly for not having a plate or taking a passenger, police told Shanghai Daily yesterday.
