Why is it easy to get stuck in traffic when it rains? What is the inevitable connection between rain and traffic jam?

It rains every few days recently. As long as it rains, traffic jams are bound to occur on roads that are usually unobstructed. I don't know if you have ever thought about why traffic jams occur when it rains. Many people can think that it may be that the vision is poor and the car drives slowly when it rains, but if this is the only reason, the traffic jam will not be so serious. So today we will analyze the problem of rain traffic jam together.

First of all, the traffic jam is caused by more cars on rainy days. Hospitals, kindergartens, schools, etc. are located in the main city. For example, children who go to school may walk or take buses at ordinary times, and parents may ride trams to pick them up. When it rains, parents will drive to pick them up. Some car owners who usually take buses and ride electric buses to and from work usually choose to drive in rainy days, and more people take taxis. There are also many cars that are left at home. When it rains, they have to drive alone to pick them up.

The second reason is that driving is relatively cautious, because in rainy weather, people will be more cautious when driving, so the travel time will be lengthened, and the traffic demand carried by the traffic system will increase according to time. The increase in traffic volume will reduce the reliability of the traffic system and make it easier to form congestion.

The third reason is that the number of unruly people has increased, and the weather is bad. Some people are in a hurry, so it is easy to disobey the traffic rules if they want to hurry. For example, behaviors such as adding meals will hinder the passage of other vehicles and pedestrians. Many novice drivers may usually commute by bus, subway and tram, but there are many people crowding the bus and subway in rainy days, and it is not easy to take a taxi, which will make all kinds of novice drivers with poor driving skills choose to drive on the road. They usually don't drive very much. When it is rainy, the situation is complicated, the line of sight is unclear and there are many people, these novice drivers will be more nervous and flustered, which will lead to traffic congestion and even more collision accidents.

Moreover, when it rains, many pedestrians or cyclists want to go home early, so some people ignore the traffic lights and push forward as long as there is a gap, and then another part of people will follow, resulting in traffic jams at intersections. The last point is that the number of accidents increases, the road surface is slippery in rainy days, and the friction coefficient of the ground will also decrease, and now it is not conducive to fogging. The left and right rearview mirrors and the left and right triangular windows can't see the road clearly from the rainy land. Coupled with the fact that many inexperienced novices are on the road, the traffic accident rate will increase, and many people will stop to take pictures to watch the fun, and the traffic efficiency will naturally decrease.

according to the statistics of traffic police, the number of traffic accidents in rainy days is five times more than usual, and there may be water on the road, so many cars are afraid to wade in the water. Therefore, parking and waiting will cause traffic congestion in rainy days, and the chassis machine will not pass when it is turned off and anchored, which also causes congestion.

Therefore, it is not difficult to find that traffic congestion in rainy days is related to factors such as people's travel mode, driving skills and bad weather. In rainy days, we should remind everyone to obey the traffic rules and drive carefully. Don't worry. You are in a hurry and the traffic is chaotic. No one can leave. Obeying traffic rules is not only to make way for everyone, but also to create convenience for yourself. Everyone obeys the traffic rules and creates convenience for everyone, so that the road can be smooth and everyone can reach the empty green space faster.
