Eyes on his smartphone screen. Stalking in this way. Tell me, this is a rare scene in today's era? Not at all. Rather, such incidents happen in our lives. However, for China, it was thought that only China could launch a separate lane. Special lanes have been introduced in the streets of a city recently for the smooth movement of smartphones.

Earlier, there were heard about the launch of separate lanes on the street for cyclists or pedestrians. However, this is the first time the separate lane for smartphone addict. According to the NDTV news, this lane has been introduced in China's commercial city Zian. People in the mobile phone will be able to walk safely through this lane. No car will come in the opposite direction.

The report of the South China Morning Post said that this special lane, created by a shopping center authorities, is 100 meters long and 1 meter wide. Lane has written warnings in Chinese and English. It has been said, 'For those addicted to smartphones'. Different colors have been distinguished from the lane. The colors are red, blue and green in these special lanes. This lane has been built around the shopping mall. Security guard has been appointed to handle the pedestrians.

Of course there are different opinions about launching such lanes. Beijing Youth Daily said that such a lane has been introduced because pedestrians do not use mobile phones while walking. Some of the local shopping malls have claimed this.

Local residents have applauded the initiative. They say that this will make the pedestrian movement safer. But the BBC's news has said that there is a lot of criticism in China's social media. Many people say, smartphone addicted people walk like blind in the street. It's a bad habit. There is no need for separate lanes for them.

Last year in China, the car hit a car when it hit the road. Because her mother was busy with eye-opping on the smartphone, she could not cope with the child. At that time, social media was widely criticized. But fortunately, the child was saved in a short span.
