On February 6, the last day of the Spring Festival holiday, many citizens chose to return today, and the highway ushered in the peak of return. In the morning, the Chongqing Meteorological Observatory issued a yellow warning signal for road icing, and the road surface temperature in 16 districts and counties such as Qijiang, Wansheng, Nanchuan, Wushan and other 16 districts and counties above 600 meters above sea level will be lower than 0, and roads that may affect traffic may be icy, drawing attention to precautions.
There are traffic restrictions on many highways
At 10:00 a.m., Chongqing Expressway Group released the news that the Chongqing Expressway Network G65 Baomao Expressway Yuxiang Section descending out of the city direction around the City Yuxiang Interchange to Nanpeng, G42 Hu Rong Expressway Fengwu Section out of the city direction Caotang to Mule Ping is more congested.
There are many return vehicles, coupled with the impact of weather, some roads are slow due to icy road surfaces, resulting in congestion. Mr. He introduced that in the morning, he drove with his wife and daughter early and returned to the main city of Chongqing from Wushan, but the vehicles lined up at the highway intersection and slowly moved forward. Previously, on the return trip, due to the rain and snow weather and the large number of travel vehicles, Mr. Xiong returned to the main city of Chongqing from Wushan, and the original 5-hour drive took 8 hours on the road. Ms. Jiang returned to Chongqing from the Fengdu Nantian Lake Scenic Area and drove for 6 hours. "There are too many people going out to play in the snow, but everyone consciously slows down the speed, safety first."
On the afternoon of February 6, the Chongqing Traffic Patrol Police released the news that in Youyang, affected by the cooling rain (snow), as of now, the road ice and fogging have occurred in the section of the provincial highway 305 in Youyang, and the traffic patrol brigade of the Youyang County Public Security Bureau and the police station under its jurisdiction have implemented road traffic control on this section, passenger vehicles are suspended, and the rest of the vehicles are installed with anti-skid chains to do relevant anti-skid measures. At present, the traffic patrol police have coordinated with relevant departments to carry out de-icing operations.

What should I pay attention to when driving on ice and snow roads?
According to the relevant person in charge of the Chongqing Traffic Patrol Police, first of all, we must concentrate on it, and we should be more careful when driving on rain and snow days, but also do not blindly nervous, relax our mood, pay attention to the front and three rearview mirrors during driving, and pay attention to the vehicles on the left and right sides, so that we have a good idea.
Due to the low adhesion coefficient of the icy road surface, the wheel driving in such a road condition will lead to wheel slippage or even out of control, the danger is very high, the driver should pay attention to slow down, not to speed up and slow, minimize the number of overtaking, avoid fast speed, violent acceleration, sharp braking.
In terms of vehicle starting, whether it is a manual transmission model or an automatic transmission model, the start must be slowly refueled, which can prevent the wheels from idling and skidding to ensure better control of the direction. If the road surface is extremely slippery, it is recommended that the manual model use 2 gears to start, and the automatic model can use snow mode or 2 gears to start. Remember, you must not drive in the middle of nowhere when driving on snowy and snowy roads.
Driving on ice and snow is different from ordinary road driving, first reduce the speed before entering the corner, and hang into the low gear, appropriately reduce 1-2 gears, so as to facilitate the corner. Try to avoid braking in corners to avoid the vehicle from sliding.
"In winter, the road surface is hard and slippery, so be sure to keep a proper distance from the car in front of you to avoid accidents caused by emergency braking failure." It is reported that the safe distance of the snow and ice road in winter should be maintained at two to three times the safe distance of the dry road in other seasons.
Pay attention to careful braking, driving on ice and snow roads, the use of brakes must be cautious. Point braking can be used to reduce the speed and avoid emergency braking as much as possible. The traction effect of the engine can be used to help slow down and brake, and hand brakes can be used flexibly if necessary. Prevent braking from causing the vehicle to slip or tail fling.
In terms of accident response, if there is an accident in winter driving, do not panic, tighten the brakes, grasp the steering wheel, and after the vehicle is stopped, the personnel are evacuated to a safe area and call the police in time.
It is worth noting that when driving on ice and snow slopes, anti-skid equipment should be prepared. When there is slippage or side slip and mechanical parking is ineffective, it is necessary to use anti-slip equipment to slow down until it stops, and cannot try to refuel and rush the slope, which can easily lead to accidents.
