There are also a number of rules that riders should follow,especially when riding on streets or highways. Bicyclists should never ride against the traffic,nor should they carry other people on their bicycles. They are also supposed to ride in single line on busy streets and to walk bicycles across the busy intersections（交叉路口）．(2)By following these rules, bicycle riders will___ _____ stay healthy_____ ______be safe.

    In one recent year, the National Safety Council reported that 34 thousand bicycle riders were hurt in highway accidents. In the same year,another six hundred riders were killed. Since the introduction of crash helmets(头盔)in 1980,the number of injuries(伤者)and deaths from bicycling accidents had gone down. Today, more and more riders realize the dangers of bicycling. They are wearing helmets and paying closer attention to cycling rules.
