I learned how to drive a car in China last summer. The process of getting a Chinese driver license is quite different from the American process. The most significant difference is that in the USA, the applicants are allowed to start driving the cars as soon as they finish their writing test. On contrast, in China, you are able to drive a car logically only when you pass all tests.
Driving literacy is important to modern people because it tells you how to obey the transportation laws. If people, however, don't obey it, there are disastrous consequences, such as, injury and death. So what is driving literacy in my mind? I think it should be composed of two parts.
The first section is that the transportation laws. The drivers must know the meaning of the different traffic signs, markers and symbols. For example, the first picture in the top shows you can't turn left. The second sign give a signal that pedestrian symbol. There is a writing test examining driver this kind of laws.
The second section requires that all of drivers must have capacity of driving in the real world, this means that they must pass the practice test. My father taught me how to move the car from one parking-slot to another and return to a parking slot. Then, when I knew some basic skills, I started driving on the road. During this time, I found that I was scared when a track was coming in front of me. I always thought that it would hit my car. When I learned how to drive, I felt the road was not as broad as I thought, especially in one-way road.
So far, I have driven a car safely based on those two indispensable requirements.
Now, I am considering learning how to drive in the USA. The first step is to learn the American driving literacy.
