Xiaobian reminds the majority of driver friends
It is important to pay attention to driving safety
Be sure to fasten your seat belt when driving
It is advisable to slow down and keep a safe distance from the vehicle in front
Let's take a look at this guide
Keep your vision clear
After the snow, the snow and ice on the windshield, headlights, and reflectors must be removed before the car starts to ensure a clear line of sight when driving. It is best to have a cotton cloth at hand, and you can stop during the exercise to wipe the fog and mirrors on the inside of the window to keep your sight in good sight.
Quick de-icing
Outdoor parking, after a night on the glass will form a layer of frost, how to quickly de-icing?
Common tips: Start the engine, turn on the warm air, and slowly remove the ice from the ice cracks with the ice shovel for car glass. The car is covered with ice and snow, and you must first scrape all the ice and snow clean, if there is no ice and snow shovel, you can also buckle the larger hard plastic bottle cap on the glass and gently scrape.
Clear the snow and science begins
Snow-covered roads can make it difficult for cars to get started, and in order to get into the lane smoothly, it is best to move the car back and forth slightly or use a snow shovel to clear the snow in front of and behind the car. When starting, tap the accelerator and don't let the wheels spin, or the wheels will get stuck in the snow. When starting and accelerating, refueling should be light and gentle to prevent tire slippage and skidding.
Pay attention to the distance and reduce the speed
On the frozen snowy road, the friction coefficient between the tire and the road surface is extremely small, the braking distance is much larger than the dry road surface, during the exercise, always pay attention to the surrounding vehicles and pedestrians, maintain sufficient distance from the car in front, and always be ready to brake in advance.
When turning, you should also slow down first, appropriately increase the turning radius and slowly hit the steering wheel, the operation of the steering wheel should be smooth and gentle, otherwise it will also slide sideways, so that the rear of the car is thrown out.
Slow down and gently press the brakes
In addition to stopping, do not take off the gear and step on the brakes, you can hang low gear, and use the engine's pull to reduce the speed. Cars without ABS should prevent the wheels from locking when braking. Don't stomp on the brakes at any time, the car is easy to slip out of control. Once a skidding tail has occurred, tap the direction in the direction of the side-slippage.
Drive more carefully on ramps
Up and downhill should use low gear to pass smoothly, the middle should not be shifted, the uphill strictly prevents the flameout, do not stop in the middle, and the downhill is strictly prohibited from sliding in the neutral gear.
Parking should be done with caution on snowy days
After a snowy day, when parking vehicles in the open air, try not to park under trees or next to simple buildings, in case the thicker snow collapses the building or branches and smashes the car.
Drive on icy roads
Everybody must
Civilized driving, going its own way
Maintain a safe distance to ensure safe traffic
