Traffic accidents killed more than 104,000 people in China last year . Chinese cities have more cars than
ever . Drivers and pedestrians (行人) must work together to make the streets safer .
The law has new rules for drivers and pedestrians . Divers have to slow down when they are close to
crosswalks . If people are in a crosswalk , cars must stop to let them walk .
