听力原文：W: Now, sir, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. I had to look after the traffic on the road until some more police arrived. You're the driver of the blue car, I believe.

M: Yes.

W: Just a few questions, sir. Do you feel all right？

M: Yes, I'm… I'm fine now. I was a little shaken up at first.

W: Well, I'll try not to keep you long. l just want a few details, and the rest of the information I can get tomorrow. Can I have your name and address, please？

M: Jeremiah Simpson, 15 Portland Crescent, Leeds.

W: Have you got your driving license and insurance certificate with you？

M: Yes. Oh, here they are.

W: Thank you… Yes, they're all right. Now, were there any passengers in the car？

M: Er yes, my Wife and a friend—a young lady. My wife was sitting in the back and her friend in the front passenger seat.

W: Where are they now？

M: The ambulance has just taken them to hospital. You spoke to the ambulance driver before he set off. Did he say anything about the young lady？

W: He said that her injuries looked worse than they really were. The other woman--that'd be your wife, I assume—appeared to be suffering from shock.

M: Yes, I know. They advised her to go to hospital for a check-up, just in case.

W: Mm… Was the young lady wearing her Seatbelt？

M: No, unfortunately. I told her to put it on, but she couldn't adjust it. I don't think it was worth stopping the car because we were only going a few miles.

W: Did she go through the windscreen？

M: No, she was very lucky. But she hurt her leg on the dashboard.

W: Mm… It could have been much worse. Now, sir, will you tell me in your own words what happened？

M: Well, as you can see, I was traveling along this main road when suddenly the other car came out of that side street. It all happened so quickly. I just didn't see him until he hit me.

W: I've just spoken to the other motorist and he says that you were speeding.

M: What？

W: Is this true？

M: That's a lie. My wife and Becky will tell you that I stopped at the pedestrian crossing just down there. You can see it's only fifty yards I could hardly have reached thirty miles an hour by the time I got here. Goodness knows what would've happened if I'd been going faster.

W: The other driver said that he stopped at the junction. When he pulled out there was nobody coming, so you must have been speeding.

M: Well, it's not true. I've witnesses to prove it. He couldn't have stopped. The lighting is very good here along this stretch.

W: Yes. He should have stopped. Why did you stop at the pedestrian crossing？

M: There were two old ladies on it. I'm always a bit careful with old people because they're likely to walk across the road without looking properly.

W: I shouldn't worry, sir. We don't think you were' speeding—even without measuring the skid marks.

M: Er, was he, the other driver, drunk？

W: I don't know yet.He's admitted that he's had one or two drinks, but says it was only two half-pints. We're going to give him a breathalyzer test to see whether he's over the limit. If he is, he'll be asked to have a blood test.

M: Well, I haven't touched a drop all night!

W: No, sir. It's surprising how much a driver's breath smells even if he's only had one drink. Well, sir, I don't think I need to detain you any longer. We shall want written statements from you, your wife and the young lady tomorrow.

M: Yes. What'll happen to my car？ It's obvious that with that badly-damaged wheel I shan't be able to drive it.

W: We'll have to take some measurements of the skid marks and the positions of the cars. We'll arrange to
