Spring Festival is coming, many people choose to drive home. Among these drivers, it is estimated that many of them are new beginners. For these beginners, especially during the Spring Festival, there is a lot of traffic, which is even more challenging for car owners or novices. So Spring Festival home for the novice on the high speed, what do you need to pay attention to?
1. Don't stop suddenly on the highway
If I were to rank the dangerous degree of various dangerous actions in high-speed accidents in the order of danger, I would first put the sudden stop on the highway in the first place. The reason is very simple. The speed of the vehicles on the expressway is very fast. If you stop suddenly, the vehicles in the rear will directly hit you if they can't dodge. Think about it. The slowest speed limit on the expressway is 90km / h. If you hit this speed, the vehicle in front will directly hit you.
If you have to stop on the highway (for example, in case of a sudden traffic accident), be sure to check whether there are other cars in the rear-view mirror in advance, especially when the truck is following you. If there are any, be sure to slow down in advance and turn on the double flash to remind the car behind to pay attention, so as to leave enough distance and time for the car behind to slow down. If the car in the rear always honks or flashes lights, believe me, he must be unable to stop the car. At this time, what you have to do is not stop, but drive in the emergency lane. Even if you are photographed violating the rules or the car is scratched, it is most important to protect your life.
2. Flat tire, calm down, don't panic
Some data show that tire burst is the biggest threat to the safety of high-speed driving. If tire burst occurs over 160km / h, the death rate is 100%. But you don't have to worry too much, as long as we can drive according to the speed limit, even if there is a tire burst accident on the highway, it's not a big deal, but the premise is don't panic. Here's how to deal with the tire burst accident.
-Hold the steering wheel with both hands during the whole process and do not turn the steering wheel
-Never brake with full force immediately after a tire burst
-If the situation is controllable, please pull out your hand and spend 0.5 seconds to turn on the double flash. After that, continue to grip the steering wheel immediately
-Looking at the rear view mirror is key
-In case of tire burst on high-speed road, when the speed is lower than 100 km / h, gently brake to slow down.
3. Don't superstition is' good car 'on speeding
It's true to say that 'nine out of ten car accidents are fast', but just some drivers in China feel that they drive a good car and don't care about anything. They don't like to overtake or kill anyone on high speed, but they don't know that their own lives are in their own hands. You may be killed by yourself when you kill others.
Don't be superstitious that you can drive too fast if you drive a good car. Take a look at all kinds of accident reports. No matter BMW or Porsche or even Volvo, which is known as the safest, there are serious accidents caused by high-speed speeding. God won't let you go just because you're driving a million class luxury car. The maximum speed limit of the national highway is 120km / h. as I said just now, a tire burst occurs when the speed exceeds 160km / h. whether you wear a seat belt or not, the death rate is 100%. In addition, speeding will also lead to a significant increase in your braking distance, which is more likely to cause rear end collision and other serious traffic accidents.
4. Pre trip inspection / on time inspection during driving
The tire burst mentioned above also leads to the fourth point. Before you travel, you must check all parts of the vehicle, such as tires, lights, oil, etc; Wiper and so on, don't feel troublesome. Anyone will feel that the preparation is useless before they are in trouble, but when they really use it, they will be silly if they find that they are not prepared. They all beat their chests one by one and want to buy regret medicine to take.
If you want to drive at a high speed for a long time, you must check the car, especially the tires. If you find any problems, you can't drive without them. In addition, the tire pressure also needs to be monitored all the time, too low or too high tire pressure will cause safety hazards to the vehicle.
5. Pay attention to warning signs on expressways
Have you ever paid attention to the warning signs designed on the roadside of the expressway? For example, 'this is the accident prone section, please drive slowly'. Don't think this is a trick of the road administration department. Standing here, it tells you that this section is prone to accidents, and there have been many accidents, which reminds you to pay attention to. If you see such signs on the roadside, please slow down and don't make fun of your own life.
6. Try not to drive at night
Go out to play is a happy, don't make so tired. Especially if you don't drive at night, it doesn't mean you don't believe in your driving skills. I mean you don't believe that other people, especially big drivers, can drive safely at night.
The number of large trucks on expressways in the evening is much more than that in the daytime. The reason is very simple. Large trucks have to load and unload goods in the daytime, and there are many policemen checking large trucks on expressways in the daytime. It's OK in the evening. The police are off duty and there are fewer cars. It's hard to drive. If you run on a high speed at night, you must know that the speed of trucks is not slow at night, and truck drivers often don't have a good rest during the day. It's easy to get tired or even doze off when driving at night, which explains why many accidents on trucks happen at night or early in the morning.
To sum up, if you can not catch up at night, try not to drive on the highway, especially the hub level highway.
7. Use more lights when overtaking / use lights reasonably at night / use corresponding lights in special weather
You know the wind noise! It is the noise produced by the friction between the car and the wind when driving. If you are ready to prompt the vehicle ahead to overtake in the daytime, the light is better than the horn. Really, if you add the loud music on the car in front, you will not be able to hear your horn prompt, so the light prompt is the best way.
In the evening, high-speed driving should pay more attention to the use of lights. There are some high-speed sections without street lights, so many cars are driving with high beams. It seems that they can see the road clearly, but they also bury the root of the trouble. In the opposite lane, you can't see the driving beam because it's dark, so don't you suffer. Consider others when making yourself comfortable. I know that I will not make all drivers change their bad lighting habits all at once, but we will publicize these safe driving habits for a long time.
In addition, under the special weather conditions of rain, snow and fog, we should pay more attention to the use of lights on the highway. There are no less side lights, fog lights and double flashing warning lights. Listen to me, using lights correctly can save your life!
8. Don't take the emergency belt if you have nothing to do
As the name suggests, emergency driving belt is a green channel for rescue vehicles in emergency situations, especially in the case of serious traffic accidents. It is not too much to call it a life-saving channel. However, according to the current national conditions, if there is a traffic accident in front of us, some of the rear vehicles who are not qualified will take them away from the emergency driving. If you find this kind of behavior, please despise it. In addition, leaders of relevant departments should also tell your drivers that privileges are not used in this way.
Here I appeal to friends who read this article, if you really encounter congestion, don't try to take the emergency lane, leave a way for others!
9. After the accident, quickly withdraw to a safe area
Also speaking of the previous Chongqing Expressway accident, those people still stay in the expressway after the accident, which is to die. The most taboo thing after the Expressway accident is to stay in the same place.
When an accident happens, people will be worried. They must want to talk to the person who hit you or see if their car is seriously damaged. But it is this kind of worry that will make people relax their vigilance and bring opportunities for the occurrence of a second accident. Therefore, no matter how serious an accident or fault happens to the vehicle, if you can't solve it by yourself, please leave the accident vehicle and evacuate to the emergency driving belt of the main road according to the urban road surface; evacuate to the outermost green belt of the expressway, and wait for things to be handled.
10. Don't throw things on the highway
It can't be denied that the highway management in our country is still very incomplete. There are often villagers on the highway walking or even riding bicycles. They are not trying to cut corners, but picking up discarded plastic bottles, cans, waste newspapers and so on.
When these people pick up bottles, they don't care about the passing vehicles. If they are knocked down or hit by the speeding vehicles, they are basically seriously injured or directly killed. Do you have the heart to throw things out? Do you have the heart to sacrifice a person's life with a 10 cent plastic bottle?
In addition to endangering people's lives, things will also have a great impact on vehicles on the highway. The speed of getting on the highway is not slow, the slowest is 90km / h. If a lump of things suddenly appears in front of you at this speed, you can't tell what it is. Instinctively, you will take a direction to avoid it. If there is a car nearby, you will directly hit it, or the amount of direction is too large When the vehicle is out of control, there will also be traffic accidents.
To sum up, it seems that the usual littering behavior is like throwing a grenade on the highway. If there is a traffic accident, can you still sleep if you know?
11. Seat belts, life-saving things
The first thing to learn to drive is to fasten the seat belt. Is that true? Do you want to experience the pain of separation? If you don't want to, fasten the seat belt when you get on the bus, and remind your family to fasten the seat belt.
12. Don't let the passengers in the car affect the driver too much
When driving at high speed, the most taboo thing is to disturb the driver often. When driving at high speed, the driver's spirit is attracted by all kinds of situations on the road. Therefore, disturbing the driver at this time may cause potential safety hazards. But it doesn't mean that we can't talk to the driver or deliver things to him. My advice is not to just look for trouble. After all, he is in charge of the fate of a car.
In addition, if you drive on the road without a car for a long time, the members of the car have to talk to the driver occasionally, so don't let him get confused.
13. Pay attention to the following distance
Basically, high-speed trucks are overloaded, which increases the braking distance. If you follow behind, you will catch up if you don't pay attention.
In addition, here is a unique secret taught by an old driver: if the truck in front changes lanes for no reason, there must be something wrong in front of you. At this time, you can change lanes with the truck line safely. The reason is very simple. The line of sight of the truck is far away. It's not good for you to follow the line of sight behind him, but he will ensure his safety when he finds out the situation, so it's right for the truck to change the line suddenly and follow. It's absolutely safe.
