I WANT TO WEAR SEATBELT IN THE TAXI

I want to and I know you as well would want to wear seatbelt in the back of a taxi! Because China has 2.2% of the number of motor driven in the world, but automobile accidents in China comprise 9% of the automobile accidents in the world.

Only this happens in SHANGHAI!!!!!!!!! And imagine now, 2007, we have many many more cars on the road, so just imagine the numbers of death now each year.

I was almost in a serious car crash in Shanghai on my way to Attica, it was very very scary especially when I was sitting in the middle with NO seatbelt. It is not hard, the taxi companies can just take the ugly dirty white fabric out and we customers can wear seatbelts.

We have to do something!
Sign your name in the comment section, write your name in it and I will send it to all major taxi companies in Shanghai and to the Shanghai major. It doesn't matter if you don't live in SH or China for that matter, as long as you think it is stupid of the taxidrivers to hide the seatbelts thing you should put your name on the comment section!!!!!!!!! PLEASE

Remember when you first got to sit in a taxicar in SH, scary experience?? That is what I hear from EVERYONE new in Shanghai, that they close their eyes and wish their best, even if it's a short trip from JingAnSi to Huaihai Road.
SO PUT YOUR NAME HERE on my blog. I suggest all your bloggers out there as well let your readers sign their names. We need at least thousands of names. Let us prove that we expatriates can make a difference as well in SH.

Maybe you think that I'm really naive, that it won't work, but I do think it can happen. It is totally illogical of them to NOT have seatbelts in the back of the car. We just need them to realize it!!!!

For you who are in China and cannot be able to comment, go to www.metrobloggen.se/shopgirl and comment there (Kommentera). We can do this!!!
