What are the driving skills in summer?

The hot weather in summer is a great challenge for drivers. You should not only overcome the fatigue when driving, but also face some hidden dangers when the vehicle is hot. Therefore, it is necessary to know some safety tips about driving in summer, such as avoiding fatigue driving, maintaining normal tire pressure and preventing engine overheating. Let's take a look with Bian Xiao. 1, avoid fatigue driving

Because of the high temperature in summer, it is easy to get tired when driving, especially in the afternoon or after meals. Everyone must have felt this. When the spirit is the most exhausted, the mind often becomes dull, and driving reluctantly will lead to traffic accidents. Therefore, in hot summer, try to keep the temperature and humidity inside the car suitable. When you are tired, stop and rest in time. Don't drive for a long time.

2. Maintain normal tire pressure.

The high temperature in summer is a great test for tires. As the temperature increases, the tire pressure may be too high. It is easy to get a flat tire at this time, and the consequences will be unimaginable. So check the tire pressure more frequently, preferably every day before driving. The tire pressure should not be too high or too low, so it is particularly important to maintain normal tire pressure when driving in summer.

3. Check whether the battery, AAA card or insurance has towing service.

Spontaneous combustion is also an easy phenomenon in hot weather, so you should carefully check the overall situation of the vehicle before driving every day, especially to check whether the engine, circuit and oil circuit are aging and leaking oil. At the same time, don't put some flammable items such as lighters in the car. These flammable materials may explode at direct high temperature and even cause spontaneous combustion.

4. Check the braking system in time.

Brake fluid is easy to evaporate at high temperature, and the evaporated brake fluid will form air resistance in the brake pipeline, which will make the brake shoe not work normally and cause brake failure. Therefore, check or add brake fluid frequently in summer. Moreover, when replacing the new brake fluid, the air in the brake system should be drained clean, and at the same time, the brake hose and brake shoe should be checked for completeness. Stop when you encounter a long downhill section on the way to ensure good braking performance; If the brake _ is red and hot, stop in time to cool down, but don't pour cold water to prevent the brake _ from breaking.

5. Prevent the engine from overheating.

The high temperature in summer makes the engine overheat easily. When driving, everyone should pay attention to the change of the water thermometer, preferably not exceeding 200 degrees; At the same time, it is necessary to strengthen the inspection and maintenance of the engine cooling system and remove the scale in the water tank and water jacket in time. If the engine temperature is too high, stop in time to cool down. Let the engine run at idle speed first, and then lift the hood for ventilation and heat dissipation. After the temperature drops, check whether the engine cooling system is short of water and the reason why the engine temperature is too high.

6. It is best to refuel to 70% to 80%.

The hot weather in summer will make the gasoline in the tank more volatile. When refueling in summer, 70% to 80% of the fuel tank capacity is enough, which can not only reduce volatilization, reduce vehicle load, but also save some fuel consumption.

7. Never drive in slippers.

Wearing flip-flops is very popular in summer, which is fashionable, convenient and cool, but you must never drive with slippers. Because _ slippers can easily affect the operation of pedaling, if you encounter a dangerous situation, because slippers do not follow your feet, the strength is too weak to support you to step on the brake pedal quickly, delaying the braking opportunity, and it is likely to be more dangerous.

8. Drive carefully and safely in rainy days.

There are many showers in summer, which is easy to cause a lot of water on the road. At this point, drivers should not blindly force their way through. They should get off and observe the water depth to see how the former passed. If the water depth is less than half the height of a wheel, they can pass. But if the water level is too deep, it is forbidden to pass.

When wading, vehicles should pass slowly at low speed, carefully observe the driving route, increase the engine speed, and always keep the pressure gas in the exhaust pipe to prevent stagnant water from entering the exhaust pipe and causing flameout; If it is unfortunate to find that the vehicle is turned off when it enters the water, you must not start the car again and seek professional help immediately.

9. Open the window and turn on the air conditioner before getting on the bus.

When the car is exposed to the hot sun, don't turn on the air conditioner immediately, but open the doors and windows first to release the hot air inside the car. At this time, only the external circulation and blower of the air conditioner are turned on, and after the high-temperature air in the car is exhausted, the doors and windows are closed to start the air conditioner refrigeration, and the effect is better.

10, use sunglasses correctly.

The dazzling sunshine in summer is also a reason that affects the driver's driving safety. Driving in the sun for a long time will make your eyes uncomfortable. In the long run, you will easily suffer from various eye diseases. Therefore, drivers can equip their cars with sunglasses when driving in summer.

1 1, don't turn the air conditioner too low.

During driving, don't blindly covet the coolness, and adjust the temperature of the air conditioner in the car to be very low. This is harmful to the human body. The temperature difference between the inside and outside of the car is too large, and the endocrine system of the human body cannot be adjusted, so it is easy to get sick. Under normal circumstances, the temperature inside the carriage should be about 6℃ different from that outside, and it can be slightly higher at noon. The owner must compare the outdoor temperature when adjusting the temperature.

12, pay attention to "avoid light" when parking.

The first thing to do in summer is to find a cool place to park, and the first choice is the underground parking lot. If conditions don't allow, try to park in a shady building. It's best not to stop under the big tree. Recently, street trees "eat goods" are flooding, and the poop of eating goods has corrosive substances, which are easy to corrode car paint.

13, to prevent the car from boiling.

Drivers should always pay attention to the water thermometer. If the water temperature is high, they should stop to cool down immediately. Drivers should always check the cooling system, such as whether there is scale on the engine radiator blades, and keep the fans, radiators and other parts sensitive to prevent the car from boiling.

14, don't wash your car in the hot sun.

In summer, many private car owners like to wash their cars in the sun, thinking that the water on their cars will soon dry up after washing. In fact, this is wrong. When washing a car in the hot sun, the convex lens effect formed by water will cause local high temperature on the top of the car paint, and the car paint will lose its luster after a long time. So it's best to wash the car under cover. If you can't guarantee it, you'd better choose cloudy or sunny morning and evening.
