In order to make drivers pay more attention to driving, some new traffic rules have been made. For example, heads-down tribe members who use mobile phones while driving in Taiwan are fined. Car drivers and motorcyclists (骑摩托车的人) who break the traffic rules will be fined NT＄3,000 and NT＄1,000 respectively (分别地).
