4hw.com.cn: now the economic conditions of the people in the society are getting better and better, and the number of private cars is also increasing, especially the traffic jams in the rush hours of going to work and finding parking spaces on weekends. It's a headache. Driving in the underground parking lot is very dangerous, so what should we pay attention to when driving in the underground garage?
Notes and skills of driving in underground garage
1. Pick up card
When picking up the card or paying the money, the driver needs to keep the car close to the toll booth, but at this time, the driver's attention is focused on getting close, and it's easy to ignore whether the steering wheel is back to normal after getting close. If the steering wheel is not back to normal, it may scratch the toll booth when starting again.
It is suggested that before taking out the card or paying the money, the car body should be close to the toll booth as far as possible to avoid the situation of turning to the toll booth and then adjusting the direction. If you really need to turn the direction when you can't find the distance, check whether the steering wheel is in the right state after taking out the card or paying the money, so as to avoid the accident. Another noteworthy problem is that if the card taking machine is far away and inconvenient to take the card, you should first shift to neutral, pull on the handbrake and then take the card to avoid accidents caused by mistakenly stepping on the accelerator due to taking the card from a long distance.
2. Driving in the specified direction
Driving in the basement also needs to follow the driving direction. Xiaobian often sees some vehicles in the basement driving in reverse or reverse in order to grab the parking space. Think about it. If you encounter normal driving vehicles in reverse, it is likely to have a collision accident, even if there is no accident, it will also cause congestion and affect the driving of other vehicles.
The road surface of the basement will be marked with the arrow of the driving direction, and the ceiling will also be hung with the sign of no traffic. During the driving process of the basement, we must abide by these signs to avoid the accident or unnecessary trouble caused by the collision with the normal driving vehicles.
3. The lights need to be turned on when the light in the basement is dark
Different from the above ground parking lot, the underground garage has no natural light, and the lighting of some garages is not very good, which not only affects the observation of the road conditions ahead, but also makes it difficult for others to find their own vehicles, especially the headphone family, which is easy to cause accidents. It is recommended that you turn on the lights after entering the basement, so that you can not only provide lighting for yourself, but also let others observe you, especially when there is a blind area in the corner or in front of you, turning on the lights can easily let the vehicles or pedestrians in the blind area find themselves in advance to avoid accidents.
But I also want to remind you that although it's a good habit to turn on the lights in the basement, you must not turn on the high beam lights. The space in the basement is limited, and the light is also dark. If the driver suddenly sees the very bright high beam lights, he is likely to be blinded instantly, causing an accident. In addition, some friends may think that the daytime running lights can replace the low beam lights, which is wrong. The light source of the daytime running lights is not as bright as the low beam lights, so it cannot provide the lighting brightness required by the driver.
4. Pay attention to the cars and people around
When looking for parking space in the basement, due to the large number of turns and blind areas, there are often vehicles or pedestrians coming out of the parking space. Such vehicles and pedestrians often suddenly appear in front of the driving vehicles, and the driver's attention is generally focused on the parking space, if not found in time or the speed is too fast, it is easy to cause accidents. In addition, some elevator lobbies of the basement will be close to the traffic lane, and pedestrians entering and leaving the elevator may also suddenly appear in front of the driving vehicles, especially in some shopping malls. Children often run out of the elevator lobbies, which is particularly noteworthy.
Here's a reminder: when looking for a parking space in the basement, the speed must be slow, just keep within the speed limit, and pay attention not to look for the parking space, so that the driver can have more reaction time to make the action of braking or dodging.
Many warehouses will be equipped with convex mirrors at the turning or blind area, so that drivers can find vehicles or pedestrians in the blind area as early as possible. When driving vehicles in the basement, you can use these tools to observe the situation ahead. If there is no convex mirror, you can use the far and low beam lights to switch for several times before turning or when encountering the blind area, to remind the other party that there is a car passing by.
5. Remember area or sign after parking
I think everyone has met this situation, that is, they park their cars in the basement and can't find the location of the cars after they come back. Especially in some shopping malls or office buildings, there are many elevator exits in the basement, and they don't walk the same way when they leave or come back, so it's easy to find their own cars.
In fact, many warehouses will use the method of marking English letters to partition the warehouses, and some warehouses will use colors to partition, and parking spaces will also be numbered with English letters and numbers of the area. As long as you remember these numbers after parking, you can quickly find the parking location of your own vehicles. (www. Zhichangshi. Com) actually, there is a very simple way. When the car is parked, take a photo with your mobile phone and record the corresponding area information.
6. Civilized queuing out of the basement
Due to the reason of building structure, only one vehicle is allowed to pass through the basement, so if the traffic flow is relatively large, congestion will occur, especially in the underground garage of some shopping malls, several vehicles will drive to the basement exit from different directions, and they all want to pass quickly, resulting in congestion.
I would like to advise you here that if there are many vehicles coming out of the basement and converging from different directions to the exit, we can take the alternative method of civilization and comity as the first, so as to let everyone pass quickly; we must not rush and jam randomly, which will lead to accidents and delay ourselves and everyone's time.
In winter, if there is water at the entrance or exit of the basement or on the ramp, there may be ice in the northern area, which may cause the vehicle to slip and cause potential accidents when driving here. Therefore, when leaving the basement, try to keep a certain distance from the vehicle in front, so as to avoid the accidents caused by skidding or car flipping.
Conclusion: the above is the driving skills and precautions of the underground garage, which I hope will be of great help to the majority of motorists. Here, I would also like to remind you: if there are many vehicles in front of you when you want to drive out of the basement, don't rush to the front, pay attention to the principle of civility and courtesy, first to go first, so that you can have a way to let a lot of vehicles pass quickly.
