How to deal with the changeable weather by driving home during the Spring Festival?

The Spring Festival is coming, and many friends have already arranged their trip home. On the way home, safety is often the most important thing. But when traveling in bad weather, you must pay attention to driving safety. According to the meteorological analysis of the Central Meteorological Observatory, the northern region will continue to maintain fine weather this week, with less rain and snow, which is more conducive to the arrival of the Spring Festival travel rush peak. However, there is more rain and snow in the south, which brings great challenges to the peak of Spring Festival travel rush. Fortunately, the range of freezing rain and snowfall is generally not very large. Below, I'll introduce some matters needing attention in the face of order network. I hope you can greet the New Year with peace and joy.

Steps/methods

1. Keep driving in a straight line at a constant speed.

Driving on ice and snow requires the driver to concentrate and be alert. We should not only prevent our own vehicles from skidding, but also prevent other vehicles or pedestrians from skidding and colliding with our own vehicles. In winter, people's action sensitivity is lower than that at room temperature. It is best to keep the vehicle driving in a straight line at a constant speed, and slowly turn the steering wheel. The throttle and braking force should be gentle, and the movement range should not be too big or too fierce.

Pay attention to the road conditions in the snow and ice. On the same road section, different yin and yang surfaces, different sunshine intensities and wet roads are different. In particular, slow down on cool roads to prevent accidental freezing. 2. Downshift braking on ice and snow roads

When encountering obstacles, the driver's instinctive reaction is to brake quickly. As we all know, emergency braking on icy roads is easy to slip and the direction of vehicles can't be controlled. Drivers should first release the brakes and let the steering wheel regain control of the vehicle, or gradually reduce the speed by stepping on the brakes. Don't expect high-speed vehicles to slow down in one step. When the snow and ice pavement includes downhill braking, downshift as much as possible to control the speed, and use low gear to reduce the tire speed. If you feel that the speed has not decreased, you can brake properly and let the driving computer adjust the automatic gearbox to low gear according to the owner's intention, and then the owner can brake safely at low gear without stepping on the brake pedal. It is particularly worth mentioning that vehicles should brake and slow down in advance before turning on icy roads. In the process of turning, when you feel that the speed is too high to control and want to slow down, braking is very dangerous, and the vehicle is likely to lose its usual control because of inertia. 3. The reasonable range of slope is the sooner the better.

When driving on a slope covered with ice and snow, the adhesion of vehicles is seriously insufficient due to ice and snow, so vehicles need to maintain a certain speed when going uphill. As long as the vehicle reaches the top of the slope, the speed is still under the control of the owner, and the sooner the better.

Avoid stopping when going uphill, because it will greatly increase the difficulty of starting. When the vehicle cannot start again on the ramp, special attention should be paid to prevent the vehicle from slipping, and some obstacles such as stones can be placed behind the wheels. If you follow other cars uphill, you'd better wait until the preceding car reaches the top of the slope.

Maintain a good mental state.

Matters needing attention

For experienced old drivers, although the ice and snow pavement is not terrible, it is still necessary to slow down carefully and deal with it according to different situations. The icy road is really a test for new drivers. As the saying goes, "drive gently." Especially when driving on steep grade overpass, it is very difficult to go uphill and downhill, and it is easy to stall. New drivers can take the auxiliary road to avoid the danger of driving up and down the bridge area many times. Be sure to remember that in case of sudden emergency, don't panic and don't do anything drastic. You should calm down and deal with it decisively according to your own analysis and judgment.
