Cargo drivers " the pain of survival " : where can I get off the highway?

author:Ningbo Shipping

Where is the word "easy" in life?

After the outbreak of the epidemic, closure, isolation, nucleic acid testing, work stoppage, suspension of production, suspension of transportation, infection, medical evacuation and even death, all kinds of sad and happy clutches seem to occur more frequently in the group of freight drivers.

In the past few days, Ningbo Beilun, Yuyao, Xiangshan, etc., as well as Hangzhou, Jiaxing, Shaoxing, Jinhua, suzhou, Kunshan, Changshu and other areas continue to have confirmed cases, of which the team of truck drivers and truck drivers has become the hardest hit areas of this round of epidemic.

What is even more distressing is public opinion - because there are many truck drivers in the epidemic reports everywhere, and there are cases where the source is a truck driver, "harming people", "plague god", "one person harming a city"... All kinds of negative charges were thus imposed on the freight driver.

There are even comments: "The virus can stop schools, can stop factories, and even stop a city, but why can't it stop these big truck drivers"!

Why are truck drivers who insist on transporting at the risk of infection unsympathetic? Can't get even the most basic fair treatment? This situation makes a large number of truck drivers lose their teeth and swallow in their stomachs, and the yellow cedar juice is soaked: there are words of suffering.

One, queue. Running freight, especially long distances, queuing is a compulsory skill for drivers. Outside the traffic jam queue is the loading and unloading queue, the cargo owner, the loading and unloading workers are all Party A in the eyes of the truck driver, and they can give orders.

Second, nucleic acids. Many drivers who do logistics now have to run for three or four days before the trip of the previous day, and many drivers sleep in the car and dare not go back, and this logistics cannot be done.

Not afraid of daily nucleic acid, afraid of the itinerary code with stars. It's not that there's no way out, there's a way out.

At present, the survival dilemma of some truck drivers: In the multi-point sporadic epidemic situation, some truck drivers pass through medium- and high-risk areas, and their infection risk is greater than that of the general population, so they often become the focus of prevention and control, and the encounters such as persuasion to return, non-passage, detention in high-speed service areas, and isolation on the car follow. However, truck drivers cannot repay the vehicle loans they carry on their backs to ensure the lives of their families and children; on the other hand, without the "retrograde" of truck drivers under the epidemic, the masses in the epidemic area will not be able to eat grain and vegetables, upstream raw materials and semi-finished product enterprises cannot ship goods, downstream factories cannot enter the material, and the entire national economy will produce "blood clots".

Obviously, the van cannot be stopped. The plight of truck drivers seems to have become a typical case of the contradiction between the "quiet" needed for epidemic prevention and control and the "movement" needed by economic and social development.

On March 31, according to netizens, a Jilin truck driver was suspected of being trapped in the service area of Songyuan Wangfu in Jilin Province due to high-speed closures and died suddenly and unexpectedly. Previously, it was rumored on the Internet that the driver died because he had not eaten for more than 20 days, but since then, witnesses have said that the truck driver died due to a sudden illness and ineffective rescue. Recently, the epidemic situation across the country has been repeated, affected by the epidemic, many highways have been temporarily closed, and many truck drivers have been trapped in service areas because they cannot get off the highway. After the incident, under the guidance of the local police, other truck drivers in the local service area have gone to the designated hotel for centralized isolation. At present, there is no official response to this incident.

A truck driver in Guangzhou said: Last week, a certain cargo was mainly sent from Guangzhou to Huizhou, and a warehouse in Guangzhou previously required a negative nucleic acid test within 24 hours, and the Ezhou receiving factory required the driver's itinerary code not to be in Shenzhen, Dongguan and 24 hours to test negative.

He took a 24-hour nucleic acid test to the warehouse to pick up the goods, and as a result, he encountered a noon break in the warehouse, and waited until the afternoon to go to work to do the order, queue, and load the goods, all of which were done until more than four o'clock in the afternoon.

Hurry up and find a hospital near Guangzhou, and queue up for a nucleic acid test. At this time, if you go to the Huizhou factory, the factory has no one to receive the goods after work.

I can only wait for the next morning to be sent to the factory, just within 24 hours of nucleic acid testing, and finally complete a single order.

Perhaps, human tragedies and joys really cannot be shared, and there is no real empathy. However, under the epidemic situation, everyone is struggling to move forward, and I hope that public opinion and policies can understand truck drivers more, and will also make the whole society have a little more confidence in overcoming the difficulties together.

Of course, the iron must be hard, and if the truck driver wants to win the respect of the peer, he must also abide by the rules, protecting himself and others. First of all, we must do a good job in personal protection and vehicle disinfection transportation and loading and unloading process to avoid cross-work, non-essential, do not get off. Secondly, understand the traffic policy, as well as understand the specific measures for the passage of trucks in various places in advance, in order to prevent being detained, persuaded to return, and unable to get off the highway. In addition, obey the inspection management, all places have set up inspection points at the entrances and exits of the expressway and the key sections of ordinary highways, and announced the relevant control policies, the time required for passage may increase than the normal situation, and everyone should obey the command of the on-site control personnel and comply with the provisions of epidemic prevention and control. At the same time, basically all localities have set up special exits for trucks and nucleic acid testing points for freight drivers to facilitate freight drivers, and everyone should do a good job of understanding in advance.

Finally, I hope that the epidemic will pass quickly, and everyone will be healthy and safe
