Affected by the strong convective cloud system, there was heavy rain and precipitation in our city this morning, and the Municipal Meteorological Observatory has issued a number of yellow and orange warnings for heavy rain, and many road sections have different degrees of water accumulation, affecting road traffic. In the face of heavy rainfall brought about by the water on the road and the sudden increase in road traffic pressure, the municipal public security traffic police department quickly launched the emergency plan, timely studied and judged the changes in weather and traffic flow, increased police force on the road to strengthen command and guidance, guide vehicles to pass in an orderly manner, and go all out to deal with the impact of heavy precipitation on road traffic.
In order to ensure the safety of traffic, the Shantou traffic police in strengthening the road patrol control at the same time, pay close attention to weather changes, strengthen communication and linkage with relevant departments, timely dredging and obstacle removal, release road condition information, do a good job in road traffic safety travel tips and guidance, and through real-time rolling monitoring, timely issue disposal instructions for congested road sections, the first time to clear the congestion and ensure smooth.

In the face of such a rainstorm
Vehicles tend to stall on waterlogged roads
Here are some tips to keep in mind
▼▼▼
Why does the car stall in the water
The engine runs by mixing oil and gas into the cylinders to drive the vehicle. However, when water is mixed in the process of oil and gas mixing, it will cause the vehicle to "choke on water" and stall, and even in severe cases, it will directly cause the engine connecting rod to bend and break.
The air-gas mixture in the engine can be compressed, burned, and discharged, but the water cannot be compressed, and the air intake needs to be kept unobstructed during the engine start and operation.
Due to the rainfall, most vehicles will wade through the water, at this time the water pressure on the road is much less than the exhaust pressure, coupled with the length of the exhaust system and the design of the middle silence package, as long as the engine does not turn off, the water will generally not back into the exhaust pipe.
In the real world
The water depth was found to be more than the bumper height
Wading in water should be avoided
It is advisable to take a detour or stop and wait
If there is a real emergency, you need to wade away
It is necessary to move slowly and cautiously
Come and master these wading tips!
Q: How do I wade through the water?
✐ In the case of wading in the water, adhere to the principle of "stepping on the accelerator slowly and crossing the water slowly".
Q: How can I avoid stalling when wading in water?
✐ It is advisable to check the height of the water level before wading: if the water level is more than two-thirds of the tyre, do not rush to pass.
*Note: During driving, the vehicle will push the water forward, and the height of the water will naturally rise, which will enter the cylinder through the engine intake, causing the engine to stall.
Q: What should I not do after the vehicle is turned off after wading?
✐ If the vehicle stalls while wading in water, remember not to start the engine again.
*Note: If you start a second time rashly, it will cause more damage to the engine.
Q: What is the most important action after wading through?
✐ After wading through, a large amount of water will accumulate in the brake disc, which will affect the braking effect. Therefore, after the water is released, this action should not be ignored: step on the brake a few times to remove the moisture in the brake disc in time.
Shantou traffic police reminded
Remember to be safe when driving in a rainstorm
Keep in mind "speed down, distance control, light on"
When wading in water, step on the accelerator slowly and cross the water slowly
In case of heavy rainfall, try not to drive unless necessary
Reduce unnecessary safety hazards
Motorcycles, electric bicycles as
A common means of transportation for daily commuting
You know if it's raining
On slippery roads
How should I ride it properly?
When traveling by motorcycle, neither the driver nor the passenger can use an umbrella, so be careful to buy a raincoat that matches your height and body type to avoid being obscured by the raincoat. At the same time, it is best for riders to wear brightly colored and well-fitting raincoats, which can play a role in safety reminders and ensure riding safety.
Riding on a rainy day is prone to accidents due to slippery roads, and a helmet can not only effectively protect your head, but also play a role in protecting against rain. When wearing a helmet, you should also be careful not to put the raincoat on the helmet to prevent the raincoat from affecting your vision, hindering the head from turning and causing inconvenience to cycling.
Ways to wear a safety helmet correctly:
On rainy days, try to avoid waterlogged roads when riding a motorbike to avoid hitting pits or obstacles hidden underwater. In case of stagnant roads, do not wade blindly! Observe the water depth first, and the water depth should be lower than the height of the spark plug and exhaust pipe to ensure that the vehicle does not turn off when passing.
In rainy days, the road surface is slippery, the tire grip is reduced, you should slow down in advance when approaching the corner, and turn the handlebar slowly when turning, and try to avoid the motorcycle vehicle tilting.
Do not brake urgently when braking in rainy weather, and try not to drive on traffic markings (slippery). Apply point braking while keeping a safe distance from the vehicle in front of you sufficient to take emergency braking measures.
