It makes you a less responsible pedestrian
使你走路时磕磕碰碰
Even if you aren't driving, your texting could be aliability to the people around you. A study in the British Medical Journal found that one in three people are distracted by mobile devices while walkingand that texting was the most distracting of all the mobile activities --including listening to music and talking on the phone.
哪怕你没在开车,发短信也会给身边人造成不便。《英国医学杂志》上一项研究发现,1/3的人走路时会因使用移动设备而分心,其中,发短信远比听歌或煲电话等更容易引起分心。
The researchers observed more than 1,000 pedestriansduring rush hour in Seattle and recorded their phone habits and safety precautions as they crossed traffic junctions. They reported that textingpedestrians were almost four times more likely to ignore traffic lights, failto look both ways at a cross and to cross outside of the demarcated cross walk.
在西雅图的高峰时段,研究人员观察了近1000名行人,记录下他们过马路时的电话习惯和安全防范措施。结果表明,发短信的人无视红绿灯的几率高达4倍,而且这些人既不注意两边路况,也常常走到人行道外面去。
