traffic jams, the cost of petrol and the quick pace of modem life, but manners
on the roads are becoming horrible. Everybody knows that the nicest men become
monsters behind the wheel. It is all very well, again, to have a tiger in the
tank, but to have one in the driver's seat is another matter altogether. You
might tolerate the odd roadhog, the rude and inconsiderate driver, but nowadays
the well-mannered motorist is the exception to the role. Perhaps the situation
calls for a Be Kind to Other Drivers' campaign; otherwise it may get complete
out of hand.
Road politeness is not only good
manners, but good sense too. It takes the most cool-beaded and good-tempered of
drivers to resist the temptation to revenge (报复) when subjected to uncivilized behavior. On the other
hand, a little politeness goes a long way towards relieving the tensions of
motoring. A friendly nod or a wave of acknowledgement (答谢) in response to an act of
politeness helps to create an atmosphere of good-will and tolerance so
necessary in modem traffic conditions. But such acknowledgements of politeness
are all too rare today. Many drivers nowadays don't even seem able to recognize
politeness when they see it.
However, misplaced politeness can
also be dangerous. Typical examples are teen driver who brakes violently to
allow a car to emerge from a side street at some hazard to following traffic,
when a few seconds later the road would be clear anyway; or the man who waves a
child across a zebra crossing into the path of oncoming vehicles that may be
unable to stop in time. The same goes for encouraging old ladies to cross the
road wherever and whenever they care to. It always amazes me that die highways
are not covered with the dead bodies of these grannies.
A veteran driver, whose manners
are faultless, told me it would help if motorists learn to falter correctly
into traffic streams one at a time without causing the total blockages that
give rise to bad temper. Unfortunately, modem motorists can't even learn to drive,
let alone master the subtler aspects of roadsmanship. Years ago the experts
warned us that the carownersbip explosion would demand a lot more give-and-take
from all road users. It is high time for all of us to take this message to
heart.
