Instead it is a sum

The students study the basic traffic laws from a text to pass the written driving test that is given to anyone who wants to get a dr

30、ivers license.Driving time is a chance for the students to get behind the wheel and practice starting. Each student is required to drive a total of six hours.

31、lf an hour driving time per outing.Drivers Ed cars are unlike other cars in which they have two sets of brakes(刹车), one on the drivers side and one on the other side where the instructor sits.

The electric scooters, which weigh between 30 and 40 pounds, reach speeds of abo

38、ut 15 mph.In September 2017，Santa Monica, California, became the first U.S. city tohave an electric scooter-share service. Users find and unlock one of the more than1，000 scooters with a smartphone app. A ride costs $ 1，and then 0.15 cents foreach minute of riding throughout the beach town.Bird, the

39、 startup operating the scooter-share, picks up the scooters every night to them, and places them around Santa Monica each morning ready for peoples use. The company was created by Travis VanderZanden, who once worked in Uber and Lyft, after he realized ridesharing services failed to help with traffi

40、c jams and air pollution. Since its September 2017 beginning, Birds system has served more than 50,000 riders who have taken 250,000 trips more than half of which have been in the last month. Its since expanded (扩 张) to Venice, California, and some neighborhoods in Los Angeles and San Diego. Bird pl

Two bike-share startups LimeBike and Spin, have spoken of plans to provide electric scooters in cities this year.Electric scooters have also gotten the attention of Mayor Pete Buttigieg from South

42、 Bend，Indiana. The city is interested in using them as a way to improve public transportation. South Bend was one of the first to use bike-share systems, which allow people to park ridesharing bikes on public land. “We love to be early pioneers，” said Buttigieg. “If we work out the safety problem, w

43、e would be open to welcoming the technology.”“We need to make sure these new transportation systems are lawful and safe for users，”Constance Farrell，a spokeswoman for the city of Santa Monica told CNN. “We would like to see electric scooters continue to operate in the city. They are in line with our

44、 goal of multi-modal living and carbon-light living. ” According to Farrell，there have been eight accidents, including one with a serious head injury， in Santa Monica after the scooters rolled out. Users are required to have a drivers license (驾 照），shouldnt ride on sidewalks or have other passengers

45、 on board.Bird has given out free helmets to some riders and tells its users to ride in bike lanes, but some users ride on sidewalks, and most U.S. streets dont have bike lanes. “The global community of cities is going to have to work this all out for scooters，”Buttigieg said. “They can move unbelie

46、vably quickly.
