what is the first thing run into your mind when you read it?
break the traffic rules?
or the lastest traffic rules like the breaking news' breaking?
its a part of a passage on how to improce traffic flow. and its also a part of a sentense. so help me
Thank you
b3, welcome to A2K. There are so many ways your question can be stated and interpreted.
For example, if the sentence reads: Break the traffic rules, it means disobey the speed limit in order to keep traffic flowing.
as you've phrased it, I would think it meant "breaking rules" as in "breaking news".
b3spw, without the context, it's impossible to tell whether "the breaking traffic rules" means something or is a mistake of some sort. At the very least, provide the sentence in which this phrase is found.
