There is no little defense, there is no trace of concern, just when you feel that spring is getting closer and closer, when the epidemic is about to end, change into light spring clothes, leisurely driving on the road, the fluttering snowflakes are killed again, the melting water on the road in the evening has frozen, there is a sudden feeling that the weather is cold and cold, I am cute, and I am driving in a daze
Unexpected rain and snow weather and road ice bring great challenges to driving, so you may wish to revisit these knowledge points with Haixi Shu:
1. Driving tips on snowy days
01
Turn on the headlights
On snow days, visibility is low, and the driver should turn on fog lights and low beam lights to facilitate observation of the situation ahead. At the same time, it is necessary to turn on the contour lights and the front and rear position lights, so that the front and rear vehicles can see their specific location and traffic conditions, and facilitate the adoption of corresponding measures.
02
Drive smoothly
When driving on snowy days, avoid sharp directions, sharp acceleration or sharp braking, and drive at the lowest possible speed. It is best to pre-pedal a few times before braking, reminding the rear car to slow down and avoid rear-end collisions. During driving, the steering wheel should be as smooth as possible to avoid vehicle side-sliding.
03
Maintain traction
On snowy days, especially when the road surface is icy or down steep slopes, proper traction should be maintained. Manual transmission vehicles can quickly turn the high speed gear into the low speed gear while stepping on the brake, lift the clutch pedal, and make the engine containment force and braking system effective at the same time.
04
Don't be nervous about slipping
Do not panic if you slip or tail off during the journey. After lightly closing the throttle, slightly return to the positive direction, and constantly adjust between steering and returning, but not too large. After the vehicle is back in place, gently press the brakes until the whole situation is completely under control. Do not slam on the brakes when sliding sideways or flicking the tail.
05
Slow down early
Through sharp bends, bridges, tunnels to decelerate in advance, because the sharp bends, bridges, tunnels in the snowfall and normal road nature is different, the degree of ice is different, the friction coefficient of the tire and the road surface when the vehicle passes will suddenly change, it is very easy to occur vehicle skidding, so it is necessary to reduce the speed in advance, maintain the speed of less than 10 kilometers per hour, and carefully pass at low speed.
06
Driving more prediction
When snow falls, keep a longer distance from the car in front of you and try to choose a familiar road section. If the car in front has a tendency to slow down and merge, it should be prepared to slow down in advance. Turn the turn signal in advance when turning or changing lanes, and try to keep the vehicle at a sufficiently safe distance from the outside of the curve when approaching the corner.
07
Wear colored glasses
Walking on the highway on snowy days, there are often blinding situations. Choosing to wear colored glasses can prevent glare and eye fatigue, which is more conducive to observing the situation ahead.
08
Find out about the weather
Before going out, understand the weather conditions and the road traffic along the way, so that you can adjust the itinerary in time. After getting on the highway, pay attention to the variable information board prompts of the traffic management department and follow the prompt information.
09
Adjust the air conditioning in the car to remove fog
When fog appears in the front windshield, it should be eliminated by adjusting the temperature of the air conditioner in the car, and must not take a cotton cloth or towel to wipe while driving.
10
Prepare emergency supplies appropriately
When traveling on snowy days, you can carry snow chains, hardwood blocks, waste cartons and other items with the car in case the vehicle encounters emergency situations such as tire slippage on ice and snow roads.
2. Precautions for driving on icy roads
Bridge decks are more susceptible to icing as they slow down early as they pass
Because the bridge deck is supported by the piers and is far from the ground, the bridge deck is more likely to freeze than other pavements in winter, showing the characteristics of early freezing and late thawing. When driving, it is necessary to plan the route in advance and try to bypass the icy bridge deck; when it is necessary to pass the icy bridge deck, it is necessary to prejudge the size of the slope of the upper and lower bridges and the climbing ability of the vehicle itself, and change into the low-speed gear in advance; when passing the icy bridge deck, pay attention to maintaining a safe distance from the car in front to avoid rear-end accidents.
It should be noted that crosswinds often appear on the bridge, which brings certain challenges to safe driving. When encountering crosswind, keep calm, hold the steering wheel, and slow down at the same time, avoid hitting the direction and slamming on the brakes, so as not to cause the vehicle to lose control and roll over.
Slow start, slow to keep a safe distance
When driving on an icy road, start by slowly pressing the throttle, maintaining a uniform speed, and never slamming on the accelerator. When driving, the speed should be controlled as much as possible at about 20-30 kilometers per hour. Due to the small resistance of the icy road, it is necessary to pay attention to avoid getting too close to the car, maintain a sufficient safe distance, and when it is necessary to accelerate or decelerate, the throttle should be slowly stepped down or released to prevent the drive wheel from slipping due to sudden acceleration or deceleration.
Decelerate early try to avoid sharp braking
Due to the sharp reduction of the friction coefficient of the road surface in the case of ice, the sharp braking is bound to put the vehicle in an extremely unstable state, and there is a danger of increasing the braking distance, sliding or even overturning. When the speed of the vehicle is turned from high to low, pay attention not to urgently collect oil and brake sharply, and should slow down in advance.
Slow steering to avoid getting out of control
When turning on the icy road, the driver needs to reduce the speed to a safe range before entering the corner, slowly hit the direction of the corner, and do not suddenly accelerate or sharply step on the brakes in the corner, otherwise it is easy to cause the vehicle to lose control.
Be extra careful when driving on ramps
Driving on the ramp in the case of icy road surface is more dangerous. When driving uphill, you should avoid stopping in the slope to avoid slipping and starting difficulty; when going downhill, the manual transmission car can use the low gear to let the engine assist braking, so that the speed of the car is slowed down and the vehicle is avoided from slipping.
3. Drivers should follow the "Eight Principles" of travel
First, rational travel: reduce unnecessary driving travel, especially novices, drivers with ice-free road driving experience and drivers who have changed snow tires early should still drive cautiously, especially to avoid morning and evening rush hour travel
Second, careful travel: when driving on ice and snow roads, you should maintain safe speed and distance, pay attention to maintaining observation and observation, and eliminate unnecessary lane changes; the brakes should use the method of point braking, put an end to empty brakes and empty gears, and avoid sharp turns, sharp rudders, and sudden lane changes without hitting the steering.
Third, the wrong time to travel: drivers should pay attention to staggering peak travel, especially when choosing the main street with a large traffic flow, the travel time should be greatly advanced or postponed.
Fourth, multi-measure travel: it is recommended to choose to take a bus, taxi, or travel on foot on snow days.
Fifth, branch road bypass: try to detour along the construction road section, the slope bridge area and the traffic saturation section, and choose a wide area to drive.
Sixth, law-abiding travel: it is necessary to drive cautiously and law-abiding, put an end to scrambling for lanes and stopping at will, and reduce any adverse impact of their own human factors on road traffic.
Seven, to ensure travel: to prevent driving vehicles with hidden dangers of failure on the road, in case of minor traffic accidents or vehicle failures must be quickly evacuated from the scene, and to put an end to all acts that affect the normal traffic order of the road.
Eighth, courtesy travel: in the case of narrow sections, no signal light intersection should pay attention to observation and observation, pay attention to civilized concessions, encounter pedestrians crossing the road, sanitation vehicles, sanitation workers when operating pay attention to slow avoidance, stop and give way.
4. On the highway, please keep in mind the "six notes" of travel
First, pay attention to snow road conditions: when choosing road travel, pay attention to understanding in advance, listen to the weather conditions in real time, try to avoid snow days, such as snowfall after seriously affecting the safety of the road, should be driven into the nearest highway service area or out of the highway.
Second, pay attention to smooth driving: sleet weather travel as far as possible to maintain a uniform speed of driving, avoid sharp acceleration, sharp braking; avoid sharp turns, sharp lane changes; to avoid anxious, dry, road angry travel scramble, occupy emergency lane driving and other behaviors.
Third, pay attention to the speed of the car distance: when traveling in sleet weather, you should drive according to the real-time weather conditions, in accordance with the provisions or prompts of the safe speed, to prevent accidents due to unexpected situations in front of the brakes. Combine different lines of sight and visual distance to maintain a safe distance from the car in front, and keep an eye on the brake lights in front of you.
Fourth, pay attention to observation and observation: when driving, you should pay attention to observing traffic tips and warning signs such as "slope", "curve", "bridge", "speed limit tip", "intersection", "accident-prone road section", and slow down the speed in advance accordingly to ensure safe passage. Also pay attention to possible lane changes in adjacent vehicles and be prepared to avoid.
Fifth, pay attention to the use of lamps: when the visibility is less than 100 meters, turn on fog lights, low beam lights, contour lights, front and rear position lights and hazard alarm flash lights.
Sixth, pay attention to the prevention of secondary accidents: when a traffic accident occurs on the highway, you should first pay attention to ensuring your own safety, beware of secondary accidents, after turning on the hazard alarm flash, the vehicle is preferred to transfer to the emergency parking belt, if the vehicle cannot move, or there is a dispute between the two sides, a warning tripod should be placed in a position above 150 meters from the vehicle under the condition of ensuring safety.
