seems

food

deliverymen

are

always

in

a

hurry.

They

wear

blue,

red

or

yellow

helmets

and

many

of

them

don’t

follow

traffic

rules.

They

drive

on

the

wrong

side

of

the

road

and

run

red

lights.

They

use

mobile

phones

while

driving.These

rude

behaviors

have

caught

thepublic’sattention.In

the

first

half

of

2017,

food

deliverymen

had

76

traffic

accidents

in

Shanghai

according

to

Shanghai

Public

Security

Bureau.

That

means

every

two

and

a

half

days,

a

food

deliveryman

will

die

or

get

hurt

on

the

road.What

makes

deliverymen

take

such

risks?

The

strict

rules

of

the

food

delivery

service

companies

and

the

anxious

consumers

may

be

the

answer.

Many

companies

will

fine

a

deliveryman

up

to

2,000

yuan,

if

he

fails

to

deliver

an

orderon

time,

reported

China

Daily.

Fines

also

go

to

those

who

get

bad

reviews

from

consumers.To

solve

the

problem,

food

delivery

service

companies

need

to

improve

their

praising

systems.

Some

cities

are

also

taking

action.

Shanghai

has

asked

companies

to

train

their

deliverymen

on

traffic

rules

and

safety.

Now

in

Shenzhen,

if

a

deliveryman

gets

caught

breaking

traffic

rules

more

than

twice

then

he

will

be

stopped

from

driving

food

service

delivery

transports

for

a

whole

year.
