What should expressway pay attention to on National Day?

Before going to expressway, you must carefully check the overall condition of the vehicle, including whether all kinds of engine oil are sufficient, whether the battery and lights are working normally and whether the brakes are reliable.

It is important to check the tire condition and tire pressure. If there are hidden dangers such as cracks or bulges in the tires, there will be a risk of puncture, and high-speed puncture is basically either death or injury.

Drive strictly according to the speed limit.

The maximum speed limit in expressway is basically 120km/h, the speed limit in Quanzhou Wujiao Expressway and Shenhai Expressway is 120km/h, the speed limit in tunnels is 100km/h, the speed limit in other expressways is 100km/h, and the speed limit in tunnels is 80km/h. It is strictly observed in expressway. Authoritative data confirmed that when the vehicle speed exceeds 160 km/h, the tire burst and the mortality rate is almost 100%.

The safe distance is equivalent to the vehicle speed.

This safe distance can be simply understood as equivalent to the vehicle speed: when the vehicle speed is 100 km/h, the safe distance is greater than100 m; When the vehicle speed is within 100 km/h, the safe distance shall not be less than 50m. In case of bad weather such as rain, snow and fog, it is necessary to increase the driving distance and leave expressway if necessary. Only by keeping a safe distance can we have enough reaction distance and time in an emergency.

Confirm the export in advance

The most depressing thing for expressway is to miss the exit, which will mean a long way back. The reason for missing the intersection, besides being unfamiliar with the route, is probably that I was distracted while driving. It should be noted that when approaching the exit, don't approach the big truck. Because the huge body of large trucks can easily block the line of sight, it will also affect the lane change of vehicles, resulting in missing the exit.

Before departure, be familiar with the route and the corresponding high-speed exit in advance; When driving in expressway, pay attention to the exit signs (generally 2-3km ahead of time) and change lanes in advance.

If you miss the exit, don't reverse, turn around or go backwards, but get off at the next exit.

Try to drive in the middle lane.

As long as conditions permit, you must drive in the middle lane first. In case of emergency, you can dodge left and right, and you can also avoid colliding with out-of-control vehicles or flying foreign bodies on the opposite side.

Stay away from big trucks

Large trucks are easy to become obstacles that block the line of sight, and the blind area is large. So when you meet a big truck in expressway, you should either overtake or stay away. Never drive side by side or follow the car. If you find a big truck threatening in the rearview mirror, don't think about anything and change lanes quickly.

Beware of overtaking

If you need to overtake, you must carefully observe the state of the front and rear cars and confirm the safety before overtaking. During overtaking, don't just step on the accelerator, but also pay close attention to the direction of being overtaken to prevent collision when overtaking. The reliable way is to flash headlights and horns to remind overtaking vehicles to pay attention.

Turn on the turn signal when changing lanes.

Turn signals when changing lanes are used to inform the following car of your driving intention.
