Due to the large number of lanes and fast speed of highways, the accident rate of highways is much higher than that of ordinary highways. Therefore, when we drive on the highway, in addition to obeying traffic laws, it is also very important to choose the right lane. So when we usually drive on the highway, which lane is the safest to take? Today Xiaobian will give you a good analysis.
We all know that there are four lanes on the highway, namely the left lane, the middle lane, the right lane and the emergency lane, so which of these four lanes is safer? First of all, let's talk about the left lane, the left lane on the highway is the fast lane, which has a speed of 100-120 km / h.
The biggest advantage of the left lane is that there are fewer vehicles and more time saving. However, because of its very fast speed, its accident rate and mortality rate are much higher than those of the other three lanes. Moreover, the left lane is far from the exit, and everyone must change several lanes when they are on the highway, which is more delayed. Therefore, when you usually drive on the highway, try not to choose the left lane.
After talking about the left lane, let's talk about the middle lane, the middle lane has a speed of 80-100 km / h. Although the middle lane is much slower than the left lane, it is also more flexible, and it can change lanes to the left and right. But the middle lane also faces the most risks, maybe we drive well, the left vehicle and the right vehicle suddenly collided at the same time, we didn't even have the time to react, we didn't know where to hide.
Many drivers will ask that since the left lane and the middle lane are not safe, then the right lane should always be safe, right? In fact, it is quite the opposite. The speed of the right lane is 60-100 km / h, although the right lane is slower and closest to the exit, it is also more convenient to get off the highway. But the right lane is mainly for large trucks, and if the big truck suddenly overturns during the driving process, it is very easy to press us. And when we are driving, we will be affected by large trucks, and one that does not pay attention will collide with other vehicles.
After analyzing the three lanes, we will find that no matter which lane has shortcomings, only cautious driving is king. No matter which lane you take on the highway, remember to maintain a certain safe distance from the car in front of you, so that you have time to react when you encounter unexpected situations.
When you usually drive on the highway, in addition to paying attention to maintaining a certain safe distance from the car in front, you should also pay attention to the following points. First of all, when driving on the highway, we must pay attention to the road signs and avoid taking the wrong road. Especially when you get off the highway, you must pay attention to the exit, otherwise once you miss the exit, you can only continue to look for the next exit.
In addition, when we are driving on the highway, do not fatigue driving, fatigue driving will reduce our ability to react, a lack of attention will collide with other vehicles, is very dangerous.
