Due to the weather, many sections of expressway in the country were temporarily closed. Why can't expressway be closed because of abnormal weather?

Recently, due to the snowfall or rainfall in our country, the roads in expressway in some areas have been closed, mainly because people are driving very fast on the expressway, so if there is snowfall, accidents are likely to occur. In order to avoid accidents, in the case of snowfall, expressway is generally closed, so people can choose to walk on the sidewalk.

Why can't the weather get on the highway?

We all know that the speed of vehicles is very fast at high altitude. If the weather is abnormal, accidents are likely to occur, if there is snowfall or foggy weather. This situation is very unfavorable for drivers, because heavy snow may make expressway very slippery. When the vehicle is running, once the road surface is too slippery to brake or rear-end, a large number of traffic accidents may occur. In foggy days, if they drive on the expressway, it is very likely that they can't see the road ahead clearly because of the abnormal weather, resulting in rear-end collision. Therefore, when the weather is abnormal, vehicles are generally not allowed to get on the expressway, and many vehicles can only choose to walk on the sidewalk or take another day.

What should I do if I encounter something bad in expressway?

If we face very bad weather in expressway, we should slow down first to avoid accidents. If the weather is not particularly bad, we can see the road ahead. Don't slow us down too slowly. We should hurry to the service area and park our car in the service area. This is also a very good choice. In the case of very bad weather, we should also pay attention to the use of lights. If there is foggy weather, you must turn on the fog lights in front of the low beam at the same time, so that you can see the road ahead better and reduce the risk of accidents. Secondly, in case of very bad weather, don't park your car in the emergency lane, because once the vehicle has an accident, you will definitely go to the emergency lane, which may also put yourself in danger.

If we encounter bad weather or bad events during driving, we should first calm down, don't worry too much, and use our wisdom to get ourselves out of trouble. At the same time, we should turn to vehicles or people passing by the roadside to help us out of trouble in time. And if there is something wrong with the vehicle, don't stay in the car, leave the vehicle and ask others for help, no matter whether there is something that can shelter you from the wind and rain!
