in life, many drivers will stay away from big trucks when they see them, because everyone feels that big trucks are very dangerous. The volume of large trucks is large. In addition, many large trucks are overloaded, so it is more and more prone to traffic accidents, and once a traffic accident occurs, the consequences will be very serious. The harm of truck overload is not only that it is prone to traffic accidents, but also what are the hazards of Truck Overload? What is the impact of Truck Overload on highway infrastructure? Let's take a look at this article.
(1) Vehicle overload has seriously damaged the highway infrastructure. Because the load of overloaded vehicles far exceeds the design load of roads and bridges, the pavement is damaged, the bridge is broken, and the service life is greatly shortened.
(2) The vehicle is overloaded, the load mass increases, the inertia increases, the braking distance increases, and the risk increases. If the tire is overloaded seriously, it will cause tire burst, sudden deviation, brake failure, rollover and other accidents due to excessive tire load and deformation. In addition, overloading will also affect the steering performance of the vehicle, which is easy to cause accidents due to out of control steering.
(3) Drivers driving overloaded vehicles often increase their psychological burden and ideological pressure, prone to operation errors, affect driving safety and cause traffic accidents.
(4) Because the vehicles after overrun and overload can not reach the normal speed, they occupy the lane for a long time, which directly affects the smoothness of the road.
Therefore, when driving the vehicle to carry goods or passengers, it shall strictly abide by the loading provisions in laws and regulations, and shall not exceed the limit and overload.
Vehicle overload means that the weight or number of goods carried by the vehicle exceeds the approved quality or number of people in the driving license; Vehicle overrun means that the axle load mass, total vehicle and cargo mass or total loading size of the vehicle exceed the limits specified by the state.
Vehicle overload has caused great harm to safe driving or transportation, seriously endangered the life and property safety of the state and people, and induced a large number of road traffic accidents. According to statistics, 70% of road traffic accidents are caused by vehicle overrun and overload, and 50% of mass casualties. Major road traffic accidents are directly related to overrun and overload. Overloading and out of gauge transportation of vehicles has caused huge losses to people's lives and property.
