Drag Racing 飚车
Parents of the dead pedestrian in east China's Zhejiang Province was compensated for more than one million yuan by a drag-racing driver, Hu Bin, who has been arrested on speeding and vehicular manslaughter charges in Hangzhou.
浙江杭州飚车案的受害者父母获得超过百万元赔款,而肇事者胡斌已因超速及交通肇事罪被逮捕。
上面的报道中,drag-racing就是我们最近很关注的飚车,在这里是形容词形式,其名词形式为drag racing。Drag racing is a competition in which vehicles compete to be the first to cross a set finish line, usually in a straight line. Drag racing一般译作直线竞速赛,指车辆竞相加速成为第一个冲过设定终点线的比赛,此类比赛通常在直线道路上进行。像胡斌这样把普通街道当作赛道的车手,他的行为也只能叫做飚车了。他所犯下的罪行vehicular manslaughter字面意思为机动车杀人,其实也就是我们所说的交通肇事致人死亡。
其实,各种各样的赛车都可以统称为auto/car racing,据说有很多人都是开着modified car(改装车)参与car racing的,而那些专为比赛设计的车,即racing car(赛车),只能为少数人服务。我们熟知的sports car(跑车),虽然有个跑字,但仍属轿车系列,只是速度超过普通轿车。
