Entering the flood season
Rainfall increases
The hidden danger of driving increases
Combined with the actual rescue
summarized a strategy of "vehicle wading trapped and escaping".
There are also 2 major misunderstandings about vehicle wading self-rescue
Let's find out
While driving
When passing over waterlogged roads
How can we respond?
Wading blindly in the water will not only make driving more difficult, but also very dangerous.
If the water level exceeds half of the tire, do not pass, if you encounter potholes and manhole covers, it may cause the engine to stall. Do not re-ignite at this time to avoid damage to the engine.
In case the vehicle stalls in standing water
What should we do?
When the vehicle has been turned off in the water, and the water level has been submerged over half of the wheels, reaching the lower threshold of the vehicle, and the water level is still rising, the driver should decisively abandon the car to escape, this is the best time to escape.
If the water is too strong, it has flooded the car door, and the vehicle has a floating feeling, and the situation of being top-heavy and swaying from side to side occurs, open the window and abandon the car before the power is cut off, do not covet the property, and leave quickly.
The commonly used window breaking tools include a safety hammer, which is used to knock hard around the window, and a spring press the window breaker, which can quickly break the window by pressing hard, and must be placed within reach, never in the trunk.
In addition, if the vehicle falls into the water, remove the safety lock and quickly open the door or window to escape. The choice is to break the window or climb out of the skylight. If you really can't break the window, you can open the door when the water is almost filling the car and the pressure inside and outside the car is almost equalized.
There are thousands of roads, and safety is the first
Remember that there are escape routes when vehicles fall into the water!
Everyone talks about safety, and everyone will be able to respond to emergencies - unblock the passage of life
Leave a path of hope for life!
