X. Read the following passage about driving laws around the world, and then tick the correct answers: true (T), or false (F).

        In Sweden, it is necessary to keep your headlights on 24 hours a day. We understand that it is required for places as cold as Sweden during winter, but you cannot turn off your car’s lights even if it is June and the weather looks just fine.

        If you are driving in Beijing and you come across a zebra crossing, don’t stop or even try to slow down because this will get you in trouble with the law.

        In Thailand, it is compulsory to wear a shirt while driving. Women who go topless while driving can be fined equal to a few hundred baht.

        In Cyprus, you should keep both hands on the wheel. Drivers who unnecessarily raise a hand from the steering wheel can get fines, although we think that making some gestures at bad drivers is sometimes good.

        Don’t yell or curse while you are driving in Rockville, Maryland, USA although you are right. It is illegal to curse in public. You have to pay a fine up to $100 or go to prison up to 10 days.

        Before you drive off with a car in Denmark, you must check that the children in your car have the best places. Maybe the reason is that they can read books by Hans Anderson.

        Drinking and driving is illegal in Spain, but in Macedonia, if you are drunk, you cannot sit in the front seats.

6.        In Cyprus, you cannot shake your fist (a hand with the fingers and thumb held tightly in)        

        at other drivers.

7.        It is illegal to use bad language while you are driving in Rockville, Maryland, USA.        

8.        If you yell or curse while you are driving in Rockville, Maryland, USA and don't pay        

         the fine, you may be put in prison up to 90 days.
