3. Keep body and clothes inside carriage. Don’t leave your clothes such as scarf outside carriage. It can be caught in the wheel when driving, which is very dangerous. It’s a good feeling to stretch out your arms or even legs outside to feel the wind but it’s too dangerous. You are probably get hit by other vehicles.

4. Use headlights. It’s exciting to drive on an open road at night but remember to turn your lights on so that you have enough time to react to all kinds of problems. Other vehicles or pedestrians can easily see you and it can also stop you accidently hitting or getting hit.
