美国校园口语 49：蹩脚的司机违规

A: Joe said something funny to me yesterday. I didn't understand him at all.
B: What did he say?
A: That I was just another women driver.
B: What were you talking about?
A: I had some trouble with a policeman. I was making a U-turn downtown, and he made an awful fuss. He didn't give me a ticket, though.
B: You were lucky. What Joe meant was that probably you were in the wrong. American men always say that women are bad drivers, even when they're not.

Notes
U-turn 将汽车掉头开(在美国城市某些街道上有No U-turn标记，即不准在此将汽车掉头)
Fuss 大惊小怪
Ticket 汽车违章罚款单

A：昨天乔对我说了一些奇怪的话。我全然没有听懂他的意思。
B：他说了什么？
A：他说我只不过是又一个女驾车人？
B：你们在谈论什么来着？
A：我同一位警察发生点麻烦。我在市中心区把车掉头，他大肆发作。可是他没有给我罚单。
B：算你运气。乔的意思是说，看来你是做了错事。美国男人总是说女人是蹩脚的驾车人。即使在她们开得并不差的时候。
