What should I pay attention to when driving long distances in summer?

The high temperature in summer makes you tired and sleepy. Therefore, it is necessary to maintain a good sleep time and ensure vigorous energy. If you feel sleepy during driving, you should stop immediately, take a proper rest for a while, and then continue driving after your head is clear.

? 2. Prevent car tires from bursting

? Drive at a high speed, the distance is far and the speed is fast. Before driving at a high speed, be sure to check whether the tires, brakes and dashboard of the car have fault reminders, especially when summer comes, tires are prone to puncture, and the survival rate of high-speed puncture is basically low. Preventing problems before they happen and ensuring the good condition of vehicles can effectively reduce the risk factor.

? Never drive with slippers.

? Some people covet convenience, coolness and ventilation, and wear slippers to drive, but actually it is very dangerous to drive with slippers, which is a traffic violation, but many people will ignore this. You should know that the friction resistance of slipper soles is lower than that of ordinary shoes. Wearing slippers to drive will reduce the driver's sense of control in the coordination of accelerator pedal and clutch, as well as the change of brake and accelerator. Coupled with the hot weather, the soles of the feet are always sweating. In case of emergency, it is easy to run away and step unsteadily, leading to traffic accidents.

? 4. Drive to prevent fatigue and drowsiness.

? In summer, the temperature is high, drivers don't have a good rest, and they are prone to fatigue and drowsiness during driving. Therefore, we should pay attention to rest before driving, ensure adequate sleep, make the best use of morning and evening time, and bypass the habit of sleeping. When you feel tired, yawning and weak hands and feet during driving, you should immediately stop and rest, or wash your face with cold water to move your limbs, and then drive after your energy is restored and your mind is clear.

? 5. Keep the distance between cars and avoid rear-end collision.

? When driving, you must always keep your distance from the car in front. If there is a safety accident or emergency ahead, the rear car can have enough distance to use the braking system. When the vehicle speed exceeds 100km/h, the distance between vehicles should be kept above 100 m, and when the vehicle speed is less than 100km/h, it can be appropriately reduced, but not less than 50 m.
