Shuangliao traffic police tips
Precautions for driving in windy and dusty weather
1. Close the windows and turn off the external circulation of the air conditioner
Close the windows to help the respiratory system and prevent sand and dust from entering the car, affecting the driver's line of sight and causing damage to the vehicle's interior and instruments.
2. Pay attention to the use of lights
Visibility is low in dust weather, so turning on the headlights is conducive to driving safety. In dusty weather, the vehicle should turn on the headlights, marker lights and rear position lights to improve the visibility of the vehicle itself, reduce the speed, and honk more to warn the front and rear vehicles. In particular, when driving in close proximity between the rear vehicle and the vehicle in front of the vehicle driving in the same direction, the high beam should not be used.
3. Keep a distance from the car and pay attention to the road conditions
Do not get too close to the car in dusty weather to allow time to react to emergencies. In addition, in addition to keeping a distance from the car in front, the rearview mirror should also be used to observe the situation of the car behind when driving. Sand and dust weather is often accompanied by high winds, and some pedestrians may not be able to observe motor vehicles due to wind and sand. Drivers should reduce their speed, use horns to remind, avoid cautiously, and be ready to stop at any time.
4. Reduce the speed of the vehicle, pay attention to the change of wind direction, and keep the direction of driving
Vehicles are also very susceptible to driving in dusty weather, and the braking distance of the vehicle will be increased by the force of the wind when the wind is downwind, and the wind will hinder the driving and slow down the speed of the vehicle when it is against the wind. In the case of sidewinds, the effect of the wind on the driving speed of the car increases rapidly. Therefore, in windy weather, it is necessary to slow down the speed appropriately, always pay attention to whether the direction of the vehicle changes, and if there is a deviation from the direction, it is necessary to turn the steering wheel back appropriately to correct it. Remember not to turn the steering wheel sharply to avoid accidents.
5. When parking, stay away from tall buildings, trees, and billboards
In windy and dusty weather, when the vehicle is parked outdoors, try to choose the upwind place on the road, with the front of the car facing away from the wind and sand, to prevent the dust and sand particles from being sucked into the cylinder by the engine, thereby accelerating the wear of the parts. In windy weather, outdoor advertisements and trees often collapse or are blown down. Therefore, when parking, do not slip to the side, do not park at the gate of the fence, and stay away from billboards, windows and trees to avoid falling objects from high altitudes and injuring vehicles or people. If you can, it's best to park your car in a garage or underground parking lot on dusty and windy days.
Visibility is low on rainy and snowy days
The road surface is slippery
Affects safe driving
For slippery roads
◆ Be slow and don't brake suddenly. In rainy and snowy days, the road is slippery, so it is necessary to maintain low-speed driving, enhance predictability, and avoid rapid acceleration and braking during driving, otherwise it is easy to slip out of control.
◆ Turn slowly, don't rush the direction. It is easy to slide sideways when driving in rain and snow, so you should turn slowly and return to your normal speed after cornering. If you can't see the opposite curve, honk your horn to warn oncoming traffic to pay attention. Hit the steering wheel gently, don't slam the steering wheel and slam on the brakes.
◆ Minimize overtaking and merging. It is more difficult to control the vehicle on a rainy day than in normal weather, so try to minimize back and forth merging and overtaking while driving, and try to choose to follow the car and not fight for the road.
◆ Increase the distance between the front and rear vehicles. On rainy and snowy days, the road surface is slippery, and the braking distance is longer than that on dry roads, so please increase the following distance to leave yourself time and space to deal with emergencies to avoid accidents.
Target low visibility
◆ Make sure the wipers are working properly: Check the wipers before going out to make sure they can scrape the rain normally.
◆ Remove window fog in time: If the window is foggy during driving, you can adjust the air outlet mode to the defogging mode, and turn the air outlet towards the windshield to disperse the fog; it should be noted that if you use warm air to remove fog, the fog will be thicker at the beginning, please pay attention to stop in a safe place before starting the defogging operation, and then drive on the road after the vision is clear.
◆ Correct use of lights: Visibility is reduced due to rainfall, so turn on the headlights, marker lights, and rear position lights in time, not only for lighting, but also to make other traffic participants notice your presence. In addition, it should be noted that when driving in close proximity between the rear vehicle and the vehicle in front of you driving in the same direction, the high beam should not be used.
