Precautions for high speed driving:
1. Don't take the emergency Lane
Usually in the case of high-speed traffic jams, some owners will take the emergency lane. The emergency lane is a 'life passage', which is a special passage for fire rescue, medical rescue and police to perform emergency tasks. If it is occupied, it will cause the rescue vehicles to fail to enter after the accident, thus missing the rescue opportunity.
2. Watch out for cars coming from behind
In case of high-speed traffic jam and need to stop or drive slowly, the vehicle shall turn on the double flashing light to prompt the vehicle to come. If it's only a few minutes of traffic jam or the vehicle can pass slowly, turn on the double flashing lights, and people on the vehicle don't have to get off, because it's very dangerous to get off when the motorcade passes slowly.
3. Guard against the door being locked
If there is a traffic jam for a long time on the highway, many people will stop and get off the car. At this time, the owner must pay attention to check whether the key is held. Because some cars lock up automatically when they turn off.
4. Avoid listening to music for a long time
Don't listen to music for a long time. If you listen to music for a long time, the battery will run out of power, which will lead to difficulty in starting.
5. Alert to fuel exhaustion
In order to avoid running out of fuel, it is better for the car owner to fill up the car with fuel in advance before going to high speed. After all, if there is a traffic jam on the highway, the car will consume a lot of fuel if it goes on and off for a long time.
