Lingcheng traffic police warm tips: the road surface is slippery on snowy days, reduce the speed when driving, avoid emergency braking, emergency steering, in order to prevent the danger of vehicle skidding. Before driving on snowy days, please check the wiper and lights, and turn on the contour or low beam lights when driving.
Snow travel, safety first!
First, maintain a good field of vision
In addition to driving cautiously on snow days, it is necessary to turn on the wiper in time, and when the weather is dark, you should also turn on the low beam lights, anti-fog lights, and contour lights. If there is fog in the front windshield, it is necessary to open the air conditioner and blow the air conditioner to the front windshield; if the rear windshield has fog, open the rear windshield heater to eliminate the fog as soon as possible, so as not to see the movement of the car behind.
Second, you can't slam on the accelerator
Snow on the road surface is slippery, the road surface may be frozen, the tire grip will become smaller, such as slamming on the accelerator, the car speed up too fast, will cause the tire to slip, serious will cause the car to slip, it is easy to cause traffic accidents.
Third, prevent the wheels from sliding
When driving in the snow, a layer of "lubricating film" is formed between the water on the road surface and the tire, which makes the braking ability of the car worse and prone to skidding. Therefore, the driver should balance his hands to hold the steering wheel, keep straight and low speed, and when he needs to turn, he should slowly step on the brakes to prevent the vehicle from sliding.
Fourth, control the speed of the car distance
Snow driving to control the speed, it is best to drive at low gear and low speed, the faster the speed of the person's visual distance is shorter, the longer the braking distance, coupled with the snow road conditions, the braking distance will become longer. If the speed is too fast and the brakes are not enough, the consequences may be very serious.
Be careful
