Today is National Traffic Safety Day, and I didn't expect that traffic safety would one day be listed as a holiday.
Just this morning, I just ran a red light at an intersection, and it felt natural and didn't feel any discomfort when running the red light.
In retrospect, I can't help but be a little scared that this kind of thing happened to me unconsciously.
I remember that some time ago there was a very popular word, called "Chinese-style" running a red light, but I didn't expect that running a red light has become a nationalized label behavior, which is a little incomprehensible when you think about it.
We know that running a red light is wrong, but no matter how painful the lessons are or how frequent the legal popularization propaganda, people are like a school of fish with only a three-second memory, and their enthusiasm for running a red light continues to rise.
Have you ever wondered why people run red lights?Have you ever wondered if people should run red lights?
Why are you running a red light
The delivery guy will say, "My order is about to time out!."”Everyone will find an interface for their behavior of running a red light, and these seemingly reasonable explanations are often just an emotional vent, they did not say the reasons in their hearts.The student council will say, "I'm running late for school!."”
Businessmen will say, "Time is money!".”
"Everyone else is breaking in, why can't I!This may be the subtext of a lot of people running a red light.We cover up our innermost thoughts under the guise of cherishing time, you are far less precious than you think, you just don't want to face your own unreasonable explanations.It's okay for others to break in, how can I be okay!"This may be a fluke for many people to run a red light.
I want to create it, I want you to take care of it!"This may be the true attitude of many people when they run a red light.
You can spend a lot of time playing games, watching dramas, and engaging in ineffective socializing, but you don't want to spend those dozens of seconds standing there - because it's silly and boring!This is the truest emotion you have when you run a red light.
It's like those tens of seconds in an elevator, and you're going to stand there stupidly and wondering what to do, but you don't seem to have enough time to do something.
During this time, you will clearly feel that the flow of life is slowing down, and you will see that precious ten seconds wasted like this.
So what to do, in order to save this time that is about to pass, it may be a good choice to run a red light. As the thoughts flowed, so did the body.
With the impetuousness of society, it is difficult for us to stay quietly in one place for a while, and even have to eat for a while.
You'll see that almost all vehicles on the road, large and small, are equipped with an on-board electronic device. You think it's for navigation, no, it's more for people's amusement. We will seize all the gaps and swipe a TikTok in these dozens of seconds to distract our attention, otherwise we will not be able to suppress the thought of rushing out.
So, in the final analysis, man is an animal that is easily bored, and in the midst of boredom, he will produce anxiety. The high-sounding reasons we think about are often just that we don't want to be honest with our hearts.
You should not run a red light
The answer seems clear, on the one hand, running a red light itself is an illegal act, and it will be subject to legal constraints and sanctions. On the other hand, running a red light is also dangerous, and it is irresponsible for one's own life and the lives of others. But why are so many people still doing things they shouldn't?
In fact, it should not be the result of everyone's weighing the pros and cons, but this process of weighing is done subconsciously, and your body will give the answer before your thoughts.
For example, would you run a red light in a busy city?I think it's probably not, because the risk factor is too high, and you will give up decisively after weighing it. But what if there are a lot of people running red lights at this time, will you follow along?I think there is a high probability that it will, because the risk factor has been greatly reduced.
Similarly, on a street with few vehicles, facing a traffic light that lasts for 2 minutes, would you run a red light?Leave your answers in the comment area.
Each of us has a scale in our hearts, a scale that can measure the weight of our own life. It should be difficult to draw a conclusion on whether or not a simple discussion should be made here, because everyone weighs different weights, and although they all say they shouldn't, they act more honestly.
When I stood at the intersection at 5 a.m., there was only the sprinkler truck moving back and forth and the occasional rustle of sweeping. What am I waiting for at the intersection?What are you waiting for at the intersection again?Running a red light is something that can be decided almost instantaneously.
Therefore, what we should do is to take responsibility for the results of our actions, and in this matter, there is no such thing as a vulnerable group.
If you decide to run a red light, don't blame the truck driver who suddenly rushed out of the dark corner, think about it, that driver is actually the vulnerable group at this time, isn't it? Seeing that he was about to drag two families into the abyss, he couldn't avoid it.
We will mercilessly blame those who run the red light, and we will indifferently throw off the word "deserved" for those who unfortunately have an accident. But ask ourselves if we have ever run a red light and how we would like others to treat us.
There is no need to stand on the commanding heights of morality and law to accuse others, everyone will stand and speak, and be responsible for themselves and others, and that's it.
You're going to run a red light
Whether you will run a red light or not depends on how you look at the rules.
When you value the rules above all else, or when the rules are equal to the weight of your life, you will naturally make a sound decision.
I sometimes wonder if there are any places in today's society where there are no traffic lights, and they really exist.
In the Netherlands there is a small town called Drachten, which was the first city on the European continent to do away with traffic lights. The existing equipment such as traffic lights, zebra crossings, and protective fences did not improve traffic, but rather acted like a shackle to restrict people's travel. The tighter the shackles, the more people want to resist. Therefore, in the eyes of the people, ** simply opened the lock.
I thought this was playing with fire, but the imaginary world chaos did not appear, but the traffic became smoother. The whole city has slowly formed a set of principles of "car courtesy, motor vehicle courtesy bicycle, late arrival, first comer, right corner, and auxiliary road courtesy to the main road".
When a principle becomes a common understanding, it is much easier to maintain the rules, just like in a spotless street, you are embarrassed to drop the melon skin in your hand.
But why hasn't there been the disruption that people imagined the world to have?Because each person's evaluation of the weight of their life has become different, that is, the weight on the scale has changed.
When there are traffic lights, the rules are clear, so pedestrians and vehicles will form a tense situation, not giving in to each other. And when the traffic light is canceled, the division of responsibilities becomes very blurred, and accidents are more likely. Therefore, both pedestrians and drivers have become more cautious about their behavior, and they no longer think about whether to run a red light, but how to maximize the protection of their lives and property.
Imagine that you cross the street where there are zebra crossings and traffic lights, and you are just as cautious as you are crossing the road where there is nothing.
But not all cities have the courage and courage to do this, especially in some of the most populous cities, and the only way they can think of is to tighten the shackles.
So, in most cases, following the rules is the greatest respect for life.
