15.A CCTV news program showed that in only an hour,more than 600people jumped red lights when crossing a road at a crossing in Shijiazhuang,Hebei."Chinese style road crossing"has become a hot expression recently.Chinese people"cross roads without thinking about traffic lights,so long as they are part of a crowd",said a post on Sina Weibo.
Many people say that they jaywalk(亂穿馬路)because the red light lasts too long."People are likely to ignore(忽略) the light when the waiting time is longer than they can bear(忍受),"said Ni Ying,a member of the research team.However,a survey on Sina Weibo showed that nearly half of respondents(調(diào)查對象)believe that people jaywalk mainly because they don't respect rules.
Some Chinese cities have started taking some actions to punish jaywalkers.For example,the first three people in a jaywalking group will be fined(罰款)50yuan in Shijiazhuang.But calling on people to respect rules is more important.To completely solve the problem,everyone should realize the importance of obeying the traffic rules.
