Speaking of Tibet, I believe many people are looking forward to it. However, it was difficult to enter Tibet before. Now, with the rapid development of China's national strength and economy, more and more roads and railways have entered Tibet. In recent years, road trip's entry into Tibet has become a popular trend for more and more people to visit Tibet. However, people can not only enjoy the beautiful scenery on the Sichuan-Tibet line, but also see many abandoned vehicles on the roadside from time to time.

Some of these abandoned cars on the roadside look rusty, and some seem to have been demolished, which is basically in a state of scrapping. Of course, there are new cars, even luxury cars. So why are there so many abandoned cars on the Sichuan-Tibet line? Why don't people want to tow these cars? No one wants it or is there another reason? Next, let's take a look at the abandoned cars on the Sichuan-Tibet line and the Sichuan-Tibet line!

The Sichuan-Tibet line, as its name implies, is the expressway from Sichuan to Tibet. Mainly divided into two lines. One is the southern section of National Highway 3 18 Sichuan-Tibet Line, starting from Chengdu, Sichuan, passing through cities such as Ya 'an, Kangding, Litang, Batang and Tongmai Natural Barrier, and finally reaching Lhasa, Tibet. The total length is about 2 146 km, and the altitude difference is great, with an average altitude of 4000. At the same time, the southern Sichuan-Tibet line also spans Jinsha River, Lancang River, Nujiang River, Yarlung Zangbo River and Tanggula Mountain, with beautiful natural scenery along the way. It can be said that the southern part of the Sichuan-Tibet line is the first choice to enter go on road trip, but it is also a very "dangerous" route.

The other is the northern section of the Sichuan-Tibet line of National Highway 3 17, which also starts from Chengdu, passes through Dujiangyan, Bataan, Dege, Baqen, Qamdo and other cities, and finally reaches Lhasa. With a total length of 24 13 km and an altitude of more than 4,500 meters, the scenery is more humanistic.

Of course, apart from knowing the composition of the Sichuan-Tibet line, many people must have heard that the Sichuan-Tibet line is figuratively compared to the "devil's road" and the "death road". Just listening to this name can remind you how difficult this road is to repair. From April 1950 to February 1954, this dangerous Sichuan-Tibet highway took four years and eight months to build.

However, in order to build this Sichuan-Tibet highway and maintain the stability of Tibetan areas, 1 1000 soldiers and civilians stubbornly stuck to this Sichuan-Tibet line day and night, and in the process of road construction, nearly 5,000 soldiers and civilians stayed on this Sichuan-Tibet highway forever because of backward technology, bad weather and lack of materials. Some people say that the Sichuan-Tibet Highway is beautiful if it can connect with the "heavenly road" of heaven, but it is also the "devil's road" paved by countless ancestors with blood.

Nowadays, with the development of science and technology, the infrastructure of Sichuan-Tibet Highway has gradually improved, and it has also developed into an "online celebrity road" and a "tourist punching place" for more and more people to enter Tibet. So suppose you go to Tibet from Sichuan-Tibet line in go on road trip, do you have any requirements for vehicles?

When it comes to Sichuan-Tibet Highway, many people may think that its road conditions are very complicated, the roads are bumpy and the danger of falling rocks is frequent, but in fact this describes the situation of Sichuan-Tibet Highway more than ten years ago. Now the country has invested a lot of manpower, material resources and financial resources, and the road conditions of Sichuan-Tibet highway have been greatly improved, which is basically similar to our common national highway. Moreover, more than 90% of roads are paved with asphalt, and viaducts and tunnels have been built in many places, so the safety factor is much higher than before.

Therefore, from a large-scale analysis, the Sichuan-Tibet line has no rigid requirements for vehicles, and it is not just off-road vehicles that adapt to the Sichuan-Tibet line. According to many experienced people, cars, tricycles, motorcycles and even bicycles abound on the Sichuan-Tibet line. However, for the sake of insurance and caution, you can refer to the following requirements when choosing vehicles on the Sichuan-Tibet line:

First of all, it is best to choose a model with strong power and high chassis. Of course, the Sichuan-Tibet line now has no special requirements for the power and emissions of automobiles. Generally, cars with a displacement above 1.6L have little problem on the Sichuan-Tibet line. However, driving on the Sichuan-Tibet line may encounter landslides, mud, wading, sharp bends, steep slopes and so on. If the car has high horsepower and high chassis, it will be easier to get out of danger and drive forward, and if the car can be equipped with a good shock absorption system, it will greatly reduce the damage and wear to the car.

Secondly, it's best to choose a model that doesn't pick oil, because 92 oil is the most along the Sichuan-Tibet line and 95 oil is less. For example, if you drive an SUV, you'd better choose a car with high fuel consumption, such as Toyota series, Mitsubishi series, Great Wall series, BAIC series, etc., and the most important thing is to assume that the car encounters any problems on the road and find parts and maintenance.

In addition, the choice of tires on the Sichuan-Tibet line is also very important. Experienced people suggest that at tires (all-terrain universal tires) are the best choice on Sichuan-Tibet railway, because AT tires have rough tread, high friction, stronger grip and much stronger durability than HT tires (road tires), which is very suitable for cross-country and mountain road driving. Of course, just in case, there must be a spare tire in the car.

In short, with the continuous improvement of the Sichuan-Tibet line, the demand for cars is actually not much. Of course, it is icing on the cake to choose a car with better power, chassis and performance when conditions permit, but in fact, the most important thing is to look at the driver's technology. The so-called cars that can't reach Tibet are just people who can't reach Tibet.

According to relevant survey data, at present, there are more than 300 vehicles abandoned by the roadside on the Sichuan-Tibet line, some of which are even luxury cars, which are of great value. Now there is no requirement for cars on the Sichuan-Tibet line, and the road conditions are gradually improving. Why are there so many abandoned cars on the Sichuan-Tibet line?

In case of extreme weather and natural disasters, the car is damaged and unable to drive. Although more than 90% of the roads on the Sichuan-Tibet line have been improved to asphalt roads, there are still steep slopes. If you encounter bad weather such as heavy rain and heavy snow and natural disasters such as mudslides, landslides and landslides, most people will choose to abandon their cars on the side of the road.

In the event of a traffic accident or car failure, there is no way to continue driving. The Sichuan-Tibet line is nearly 5000 kilometers long. Compared with a reference object, the radius of the earth is 637 1 km. It is very challenging for road conditions and driving skills to drive such a long distance on the Sichuan-Tibet line. Many people have had traffic accidents on the Sichuan-Tibet line because they are unfamiliar with the road conditions, tired driving, accidentally reaching a steep slope, etc., or the vehicles broke down on the way and could not continue driving, so they had to temporarily park their cars on the side of the road.

The owner and vehicle did not adapt at high altitude, and altitude sickness occurred, so they had to abandon their vehicles. Driving on the Sichuan-Tibet line, the altitude is high and the gap is large. Many people who don't adapt to altitude sickness will have altitude sickness more or less. In addition to people, cars will be turned upside down in the plateau area, that is, the power of the car is seriously insufficient, and the water tank can't move forward. Then in the face of these situations, the owner had to temporarily park his car on the side of the road to save his life.

Of course, no matter what the reason, the owner abandoned the car on the side of the road, he must have tried to come back to the trailer in the future, but many owners finally chose to give up and come back to find the car after comprehensive consideration, so the car has been abandoned on the road. This is mainly because the owner considers that on the one hand, the trailer is difficult to repair, on the other hand, the round-trip cost is too high, and the insurance may not be reported.

In addition, the Sichuan-Tibet line has a long distance, bad weather conditions and high risk factor. If you are looking for a trailer, it will be a luxury car, but it is estimated that the cost of the trailer plus the cost of maintenance is enough to buy a new car. So this is why there are so many abandoned cars parked on the side of the road on the Sichuan-Tibet line.

Then, since there are so many abandoned cars parked on the Sichuan-Tibet line, why didn't anyone do it? After all, why not give a car for nothing? However, for the incident of picking up abandoned cars on the Sichuan-Tibet line, the locals replied: "If you dare to try one, you will know."

It turns out that a few years ago, many local people lost money because they picked up abandoned cars on the roadside. The reason is that residents living near the Sichuan-Tibet line saw the car abandoned by the roadside all the year round, thinking that the owner didn't want it, so they wasted manpower, material resources and financial resources to drag the car home and then spent money to repair the broken car. However, after the car was repaired, the original owner located the car at the door according to the GPS on the car, not only returned the repaired car to the original owner, but also was severely punished by the government department.

So over time, no one on the Sichuan-Tibet line dared to tow away the abandoned car. And more importantly, it is very difficult to pick up these abandoned cars, drag them back and maintain them, and it is not worth the candle.

However, I dare not pick up the whole vehicle, but it does not prevent many people from picking up the parts through disassembly. Therefore, cars that have been abandoned by the roadside all the year round are basically dismantled to leave only an empty shell, such as doors, tires, seats, air-conditioning pumps, central control panels and so on. Can be disassembled and taken away. So after a long time, these abandoned cars on the roadside gradually became garbage on the Sichuan-Tibet line, which not only affected traffic, but also polluted the environment.

In short, no matter what causes so many cars on the Sichuan-Tibet line to be abandoned, there is really no good solution at present. Therefore, we can only remind friends who drive the Sichuan-Tibet line by car to be as fully prepared and cautious as possible before departure. After all, it's a pity to abandon the car on the Sichuan-Tibet line. Readers, what do you think of this?
