Bikes, scooters and car parks, sentence 1
Drivers must be able to see you, so at night a bike has a white light at the front, a red light at the back and reflectors; and you never ride up the inside of a lorry or truck at a junction, where the driver cannot see you and may turn across you.
Who acts: Drivers, bike, you, driver · What happens: be, see, have, not ride up, not see, turn · To what, where: you, white light, front, inside, junction
