【Early warning tips】Those things that need to be paid attention to when driving in winter

According to Ping An Shangqiu:

winter

Bad weather is increasing

The road traffic environment has deteriorated significantly

In order to avoid and reduce the occurrence of traffic accidents

Please keep in mind the safety points

Pay attention to traffic safety in bad weather

Driving visibility on snowy days is low

In addition, the road surface is prone to snow and ice after snowfall

Add hidden dangers to travel safety

Driving on snowy days requires attention to these aspects

When traveling on snowy days

Slow down and don't brake. Snow road wet and slippery, to maintain a low speed, enhance predictability, during the driving process to avoid sharp acceleration, sharp braking, sharp hit the direction, otherwise it is easy to slip out of control;

Turn slowly and don't rush to hit the direction. Turning on slippery roads is easy to slide sideways, so slow down when turning, if you can't see the opposite curve, you should honk the horn to remind the opposite car to pay attention, especially pay attention not to hit the steering wheel and slam on the brakes;

Minimize overtaking and paralleling. Snowy days are more difficult to control vehicles than in normal weather, so minimize back-and-forth paralleling and overtaking during driving, and do not scramble for traffic;

Increase the distance between the front and rear. On slippery roads, the braking distance is longer than that of dry roads, and the distance between driving should be widened to leave time and space for dealing with emergencies to avoid accidents such as rear-end collisions.

After the snowfall

Foggy weather is essential

Low visibility seriously affects driving safety

When traveling on foggy days

Turn on the profile lights, emergency lights, anti-fog lights, low beam lights (do not open high beams), front and rear position lights and hazard warning flashing lights so that you can see the front car, but also let the rear car can see you; guide the line of sight through the road marking and front tail light;

Intermittent honking measures to signal to other vehicles;

If the window fogs during the driving, the air outlet mode can be adjusted to the defogging mode, and the cold or warm air can be turned on to disperse the fog;

The fog will be thicker in the early stage of warm air defogging, so you should choose a safe place to stop and remove the fog, and then drive on the road after the vision is clear;

When visibility is low, under the premise of ensuring safety, slow down into the rightmost lane, and then choose the nearest road exit to drive slowly out or enter the nearby service area to temporarily avoid and wait for the fog to dissipate.

Due to low temperatures in winter

The road surface is very easy to freeze after encountering water

When driving a vehicle on an icy road

It is easy to appear unstoppable or not

Vehicle skidding, etc

When traveling on icy roads

Slow down and control the distance: drive to the turning downhill section, decelerate in advance, control the distance, once there is an emergency, there can be enough response and timely response time; even if the road conditions are better, we must control the speed, maintain a safe distance from the car in front, and avoid refueling and slamming on the brakes;

Do not overtake in curves: Overtaking in curves is a very dangerous behavior, because in curves, the driver's line of sight itself will be blocked, and it is impossible to see what is ahead, and it is impossible to predict whether there is a car coming in the opposite direction. If you overtake at this time, it is tantamount to overtaking forward with your eyes closed, and it is very easy to cause collision accidents due to untimely avoidance;

Honking to remind other vehicles: driving on mountain roads, especially when about to pass through curves, drivers should honk more horns to remind the opposite vehicle of its own position.

Traffic accidents are prone in winter

Please keep the drivers full of energy

Drive with caution

Travel safely and civilly
