Changing tires in the high-speed fast lane and triggering a three-car rear-end collision, this kind of thing that sounds like a fantasy, has actually happened!
Recently, according to @1818 GoldenEye reported that a very strange car accident occurred on a highway section, and in a short period of time, three cars had a series of rear-end collisions without warning.
According to one of the drivers involved in the accident, the reason for slowing down was to avoid a car parked in the fast lane, and the person on that car actually changed the tires in place!
When the traffic police investigated the cause of the accident, the man who changed the tire said that he drove his father on the highway, and it was not long before he heard the car banging, and then there was a puncture, and he was going to lean into the emergency lane, but because of fear, he stopped in place.
After parking the car, he directly chose to call the police, and then contacted a friend, and under the guidance of the friend, he finally contacted the insurance company.
Then something that made people cry and laugh happened, the insurance company said that it was temporarily unable to get on the highway, and because it was his own puncture, it did not hurt others, so he let the man change the tire himself.
It was also after hearing this sentence that the driver chose to replace the tires in situ, which led to a follow-up accident.
This is not to mention, what is even more head-raising is that when asked why the triangle warning sign was not used, the man said that the warning sign was missing, so he put a fire extinguisher in the back of the car, on the grounds that "the fire extinguisher is larger and more conspicuous." ”
So what should I do if I suddenly encounter a vehicle puncture on the highway?
High-speed tire burst, do not pull the dead handbrake, should hold the steering wheel with both hands, reduce the shaking of the vehicle; do not directly step on the brakes, should use the "point step" method, slowly reduce the speed; after the vehicle is stable, it should slowly brake, drive away from the main lane to the emergency lane; after the vehicle is parked, you should call the 12122 alarm phone, evacuate the personnel on the car as soon as possible to the outside of the guardrail, and away from the vehicle, in case of secondary accidents; finally, at 150 meters behind the vehicle, set up a warning triangle.
