There are thousands of roads, and safety is the first. At any time, we must put safety in the first place, especially on the highway, and always pay attention to the dynamics of the vehicles in front of and behind, so as to avoid the emergency braking of the front car, and they cannot be found in time and are hit by the front and rear. But some car owners are very willful when driving, thinking that they are going to let themselves go when they honk other vehicles, but they did not expect an accident.
There was a traffic accident on a highway in Jiangxi, where a female driver was driving in a private car and intended to overtake a truck in front of her. The female driver honked her horn a few times to signal to the truck in front of her that she was about to overtake, and let the truck driver give way to herself. The female owner then sped up and overtook the passing lane on the left.
However, in the process of changing back to the original lane, the vehicle suddenly rushed to the side guardrail for some reason, and after knocking down a piece of the guardrail, the vehicle overturned on the side of the road. Fortunately, none of the passengers in the car were injured. After getting out of the car, the female owner quickly called the police. When the traffic police investigated, the female car owner's remarks made people cry and laugh.
The traffic police asked the female owner from which lane to overtake? The female owner said she was overtaking the car from the left side of the lane, but she did not understand why the car suddenly turned to one side. She had to look at the dashcam to see what was going on.
After the female owner looked over the video of the dashcam, she felt that the truck driver was responsible. Before he overtook, he had already honked his horn in advance to signal the truck driver to overtake himself, and the other party should let himself, but he did not let it. And the female driver also stressed that everyone has learned when taking the driver's license, and when others are overtaking, you must be polite.
After the traffic police saw the dashcam, they thought that the female owner's behavior of honking the horn in advance before overtaking was correct, but the operation after the overtaking was wrong. After the overtaking is completed, it is necessary to pull away from the rear car at a sufficient safe distance and then change back to the original lane. However, after the female owner overtook the car, she directly changed back to the original lane and did not maintain a sufficient safe distance from the truck. Although the female driver had previously honked the horn to signal the truck driver, when changing lanes, the female driver was too close to the truck and the other party could not avoid it.
Overtaking on high speed is a very common operation in life, but overtaking should also pay attention to ways and methods, if the operation is improper, it is easy to cause crashes such as overturning. So what is the correct way to operate when overtaking at high speed?
The lanes of the highway are divided into passing lanes, fast lanes and slow lanes, and the passing lane is generally on the far left side of the road, and when the main car overtakes, it can borrow the passing lane to drive. To overtake, the owner needs to observe the road conditions first, and the vehicle in the passing lane is far enough away from him to overtake.
If there are other vehicles in front of you, you need to turn on the left turn signal before overtaking, and honk the horn to signal the courtesy of the car in front. When overtaking, you must be fast and stable, remember not to hesitate, otherwise it is easy to overtake and fail, and it may cause accidents such as crashes.
After the overtaking is completed, do not immediately change back to the original lane or emergency braking for no reason, be sure to pull away from the rear vehicle enough safety distance, and then change back to the original lane to drive.
Editor's Short Comment:
The highway makes everyone's speed very fast, and if you are not careful, there will be accidents, so whether it is normal driving or overtaking, you must pay great attention to driving safety. However, if conditions do not allow, do not overtake at will. If there is a large truck in front of you, it is best to stay away from them, the blind spot of the large truck is too large, and it is very dangerous to drive near the big truck.
