NY cabbies get bullet-proof vests 美出租车司机配防弹衣
Some New York cabbies are wearing bullet-proof vests as part of a pilot program developed in response to assaults on drivers, the Daily Telegraph reported. A dozen police-issue flak jackets that can fit under a shirt or jacket will be distributed to drivers in tough areas of the Bronx, Brooklyn and Queens. The scheme is a response to the June murder of a taxi driver in the Bronx. Another driver was shot and severely wounded during a robbery in the Queens neighborhood in December.

据英国《每日电讯报》报道,为了保护出租车司机免受侵害,纽约正给当地的出租车司机配备防弹背心。这些警方特制的防弹背心可以在衬衫或夹克内穿着,将率先发放给在布朗克斯区、布鲁克林区和皇后区这些危险地区开车的司机作为工作制服。此政策出台的原因是今年6月一名出租车司机在布朗克斯区某处被谋杀。12月,另一名出租车司机在皇后区遭到抢劫并被枪击致重伤。
