On December 26, a snow that the people of Changsha had been waiting for for a long time finally arrived. The big friends watch the snow, the children play with the snow, a lively scene. However, the arrival of rain and snow has also brought many inconveniences to everyone's transportation.
On the Xiangfu Road viaduct on the 26th, a multi-car rear-end collision occurred.
For Changsha residents who do not often drive in rain and snow, what are the precautions for using a car on rainy and snowy days?
About parking
If the parking at night is in the open parking lot, you need to pay attention to the rain and snow freezing the front windshield and wiper, it is recommended that the wiper can be erected to prevent the wiper from freezing on the front windshield.
If there is ice and snow on the front windshield, don't rush to leave, you can use the air conditioner hot air to de-icing the front wind in situ. If the snow is thick, it can be removed with a plastic card.
Driving precautions
Changsha does not have many snow days in a year, so everyone will not be as often prepared as winter tires in the northeast and other places. Therefore, in the ice and snow weather, everyone is basically still using the four-season tire, in this case, we must pay more attention to the situation of low adhesion on the ice and snow pavement.
The first thing should be to pay attention to the traffic information released by the traffic department and pay attention to the road closures.
Driving on ice and snow roads, the first focus is "slow", reduce sharp acceleration and rapid deceleration, and try to maintain a uniform speed. When cornering, you need to pay attention to "turning a big turn and playing a slow plate", that is, try to enlarge the turning radius as much as possible and play the direction slowly.
The same is used to avoid insufficient adhesion, when the ice and snow road is uphill, you can properly accelerate the driving to the slope and try to go uphill as soon as possible without staying.
When driving on roads that have not been shoveled snow, you can also choose to follow the ruts left by the car in front of you. At the same time, avoid staying on the snow after driving to prevent slippage when starting again.
When driving in winter, the bridge deck is prone to icing, and it is especially important to pay attention when passing through the bridge deck.
In recent years, many Xiangjiang Bridges and viaducts in Changsha will be able to drive normally on rainy and snowy days. However, at night, the bridge deck may be frozen again, and with the ramps and curves of the bridge, it is easy to cause traffic accidents.
At this time, it is more important to pay attention to slow down and slow down, try to avoid the bridge deck, or choose the road without snow in the bridge deck to slow down.
