Now is a good time for spring planting and planting
Some farmers during spring ploughing
There is a habit of burning straw, corn stalks, weeds, and garbage
But the spring weather was dry and dry
There is a great danger of setting fire to the wasteland at will

Burning near the highway
Smoke and particulate matter after combustion
Drift onto the carriageway
Resulting in reduced air visibility
The driver's vision is limited
It is very easy to cause traffic accidents

The police of the Badong Brigade of the Fifth Detachment of the Highway Police Corps of the Hubei Provincial Public Security Department found an elderly man burning garbage next to the highway fence through surveillance. The police immediately went to the scene and used fire extinguishers to extinguish the fire. Upon inquiry, the old man was a nearby resident, and seeing that there were few people next to the highway, he brought white garbage here to burn it. The police carried out safety education for the elderly, pointed out that there was a great safety hazard in burning garbage next to the highway, and then took the elderly away from the highway.
Hidden dangers to traffic safety caused by burning wasteland
Affects the driving sight distance
Smoke from burning wasteland can drift to the main highway with the force of the wind, resulting in reduced air visibility and affecting the driver's vision. This can lead to errors in judgment and improper operation, which increases the risk of traffic accidents.
Increased risk of spontaneous combustion
During the burning process, the surrounding trees, lawns and other combustible materials are ignited, threatening the safety of passing vehicles. Incompletely burned weeds may carry sparks away in the wind and easily fall onto motor vehicles and cargo. At high speeds, these sparks can ignite cars and cargo with the help of the wind, causing serious property damage and casualties.
Deterioration of air quality
The smoke and toxic gases produced by burning the land can pollute the atmosphere and affect people's respiratory health. When some vehicles pass through the burned road section, the car is not tightly closed or the air conditioner is adjusted to the external circulation gear, and the smoke will enter the car, which will cause the driver to cough and other symptoms, affecting safe driving.
Destruction of guardrail structures
As a part of highway safety facilities, the main function of guardrails is to prevent vehicles from running out of control and out of the road and ensure driving safety. Burning along the highway, high temperature and fire may cause the metal guardrail to expand, deform or melt due to heat, resulting in its loss of original stability and support, which will not be able to effectively block runaway vehicles, greatly increasing the damage consequences of traffic accidents.
Burning wasteland is not only a waste of resources
It is also prone to fire accidents
In case of serious consequences
It is also necessary to bear the corresponding legal responsibility

In addition, the burning of straw raises the ground temperature sharply, which can directly burn and scald the beneficial microorganisms in the soil, affect the full absorption of soil nutrients by crops, directly affect the yield and quality of farmland crops, and affect agricultural income.
