The mainland has a super infrastructure construction strength, in just a dozen years, the domestic highway coverage area has exceeded 160,000 kilometers. In the past, there was no highway, and everyone could only take the national highway and the provincial road when they went out. Now that there are highways, many people are reluctant to take national and provincial highways.
However, many old drivers will still choose to take the national highway or run high speed according to their actual situation when running long distances. Because they feel that if the distance is relatively close, and they are not in a hurry, taking the national highway is more economical than taking the highway. That is also a 100-kilometer journey, which is the cost-effective of taking the national highway or taking the highway?
If you talk about the cost, running the national road is more economical. The speed limit of the highway is between 100 and 120, if the owner takes the slow lane, the maximum speed is about 100 kilometers per hour, and the 100 kilometers journey can be completed in as long as one hour.
There are no traffic lights on the highway, there is rarely a traffic jam, the engine of the car is always running at high speed, and the fuel economy will become higher. The fuel consumption of general household cars on the highway is about 5L, the price of No. 92 gasoline is now 8 yuan, and the cost of fuel after running a high-speed trip is about 40 yuan.
Running high speeds not only costs oil, but also pays tolls. Private cars are charged according to the standard of a car, 1 km is about 0.5 yuan, running 100 km costs a total of about 90 yuan. There is no toll station on the national highway, so there is no toll, and if you run the national highway, you can save 50 yuan.
However, there are traffic lights on the national highway, and there are electric vehicles and pedestrians at any time, and the speed of the vehicle will not be too fast, and the 100-kilometer journey may take more than two hours to run. And there may also be traffic jams on the national highway, and the fuel consumption of the vehicle will increase in the state of idle driving, so the fuel consumption may be slightly lower than that of the urban road when running the national highway, but it is definitely higher than running the high speed.
Taking a 1.5T car as a calculation, if you want to run 100 kilometers, the fuel consumption is about 7 liters, and the fuel cost is 56 yuan. There is no additional cost to run the national highway in addition to this fuel cost, so in terms of cost expenditure, running the national highway is more expensive than running high-speed.
But people who have run the national highway should know that now the national highway in many places passes through the village, and there are large trucks running on it all year round, the road condition is very poor, and some large pits have existed for a long time and have not been repaired. These road conditions affect the driver's driving experience, and at the same time, they can also have a bad impact on the vehicle's suspension and tires. Highways carry out road maintenance every year, the road conditions on the highway are relatively good, and the owners are more relaxed when driving.
And there are still a lot of invisible traffic violation costs on the national highway, not only there are traffic lights on the national highway, there are many surveillance cameras, if you take a national road that you are not familiar with, the probability of accidental violations will become larger. Pressing a solid line deducts 3 points, running a red light deducts 6 points, and the score of a driver's license will be deducted several times.
After comparison, it is not difficult to find that although it costs more to run a high-speed highway, it saves worry and time, and the driving experience is very pleasant. Running at high speeds saves half the time compared to taking national roads, and we can use the time costs saved to do other more meaningful things.
