Car safety: brakes, seat belts and airbags, sentence 4

Outside a car the rules matter just as much: drivers cannot see everything, so you never play behind parked cars and you keep clear of anything reversing.

Who acts: rules, drivers, you · What happens: matter, not see, not play, park, keep, reverse · To what, where: everything, parked cars
