China's highway mileage ranks first in the world, many car owners like to drive on the high speed when traveling, the high speed traffic is less, the speed is very fast. Not all high-speed traffic efficiency is very fast, And there is a high-speed crisis in Yunnan, China.
Yunnan has a highway located in the Yuanjiang section of the Kunmo Expressway, and the most terrifying part of this highway is the 27-kilometer continuous downhill. Many drivers are worried when driving on this highway, just like riding a roller coaster, and they are on the brakes at any time.
The terrain in Yunnan, China, has a large difference, and this death highway is the most dangerous section of highway in Yunnan. There are 27 kilometers of continuous downhill on the high speed, the owner needs to step on the brakes at any time, some trucks have a high load and there is also a phenomenon of speeding, and it is easy to overheat the brakes when continuously going downhill, and the brakes fail, which eventually leads to the destruction of the car.
When entering this section of high speed, the owner will find many signs hanging on the side of the road: "Foreign vehicles pay attention to check the brakes, add water in time, and the road conditions are not familiar, please slow down." "There are so many warning signs on the side of the road because many out-of-town vehicles are not familiar with the road conditions, and the speed when driving on this road is too fast, and eventually the brake system fails to cause traffic accidents."
There are also a large number of warning signs on the highway roadside: "27 kilometers downhill, 1,000 cars have lost control, 300 cars have crashed, causing 100 deaths, heavy trucks add water, check brakes, low-speed advance, the speed must not exceed 40 kilometers per hour." ”
Many old drivers are more familiar with this section of the road, before running the high speed will fill the water tank, check the braking system, and maintain a speed of less than 40 km / h when driving on this section of the road. Even if drivers are so careful, sometimes tragedies can occur, and the road is surrounded by many safe lanes, as well as a mesh barrier for protection.
A truck driver in Yunnan, Master Zhang, often drives on this highway and has witnessed many traffic accidents, many truck drivers take it lightly, and when speeding, the brake system fails and eventually leads to tragedy. Master Zhang was very careful every time he passed through this section of the road, strictly controlled the speed of the car, and did not dare to take it lightly.
How to save myself if the brakes fail at high speed?
First, lower the gear.
In case of brake failure when the automatic transmission car runs at high speed, the owner must reduce the gear, control the speed, and control the speed within the safe range.
Second, use friction to slow down.
When the speed of the car falls below the safe range, the owner can slowly lift the handbrake and use friction to passively slow down. If you are driving an automatic car, unable to downshift or pull the hand brake, the owner can release the throttle and use the air resistance and the friction of the tire with the ground to slowly decelerate.
Third, drive into the safe lane.
There are many avoidance lanes on the highway, if the vehicle is out of control, the owner can drive the car to the safe lane, the avoidance lane is set up on the ramp lane, and there are many small stones to increase the friction and force the car to stop.
Editor's Comments:
Owners of self-driving tours to Yunnan must be careful, this high-speed highway is full of dangers, and many car owners have died here. When running this high speed, the owner needs to control the speed of the car, maintain a proper distance from the car, and even if the driving technique is good, he cannot be too confident.
