Why is it easy to be blown through by the wind when riding an electric car in a duck down coat?

As the weather gets colder and colder, electric car owners begin to use the "warm artifact"-windshield. 165438+1On October 20th, the reporter visited the streets of the city and found that most electric cars were "worn" on the windshield. Although the windshield is favored by the public, there are also many security risks, which are easy to cause traffic accidents. Li Shuqiang, a policeman of the accident handling squadron of Kuiwen Traffic Police Brigade, reminded the public not to choose too thick windshield as far as possible, so as not to affect travel safety.

In a kindergarten near Xinyuan Road, after school, parents put their children on the small seats on the front pedals of electric cars and covered them tightly with wind.

situation

The wind is hanging on the next car.

Both cyclists were injured.

Ms. Zhang, who lives in Rong Sheng Square Community in Kuiwen District, usually rides an electric car when she goes out. Whenever it comes to winter, she will "wear" a thick windshield for electric cars. What Ms. Zhang didn't expect was that a traffic accident was caused by the windshield.

Ms. Zhang rode an electric car along the cultural route from south to north, only looking forward, and didn't notice that there were many items in the back seat of an electric car next to her. Because of the wind, it was hung on the back seat of the electric car next to it, and then two electric cars collided, and Ms. Zhang and another cyclist were injured.

Li Shuqiang, a policeman of the accident handling squadron of Kuiwen Traffic Police Brigade, said that the accident was caused by improper use of the windshield of electric vehicles, and the cyclist had no time to respond.

Mr. Zhang, who lives in Lvfacheng Community in Weicheng District, bought an oversized windshield from the Internet. One night when riding an electric car, due to poor eyesight, the wind somehow hung on a bicycle owner nearby. Mr. Zhang tried to support it with his feet. Before he could react, both owners fell to the ground. "At that time, there was probably a strong wind and it was hung on the bicycle on the side. There is also a handle on the handlebar, and the brakes are also affected. Fortunately, the speed is slow and the injury is not serious. " Mr. Zhang said.

Most electric cars on the street

Equipped with various wind shields.

165438+1On October 20th, the reporter visited the streets in the city and found that more than 90% of electric vehicles were equipped with various windshields. Generally, windshields are equipped with handles, which can wrap hands and legs; Some are large, with chest protectors in front and hanging around the rider's neck with belts; There is also a wide waist guard that can be fixed to the rider.

In the northwest of the intersection of Xinhua Road and Lechuan East Street, a car owner rode an electric car from north to south. The reporter saw that there is a thick windshield on the electric car, which not only wraps the rider's legs and hands, but also has a belt hanging around the rider's neck at the chest protector, which looks heavy.

The reporter observed on the auxiliary road near the intersection of Xinhua Road and Xuanwu East Street that more than 20 electric vehicles passing within five minutes had windshields.

In a kindergarten near the intersection of Xinyuan Road and Xuanwu East Street in the economic zone, many parents ride electric cars to pick up their children after school in the afternoon. Some parents put their children in the small seat on the front pedal and then cover them tightly with the windshield. If you don't look carefully, you can't see that there is still a child sitting on the electric car.

Knowing that it will affect flexibility

It will be installed to keep out the cold.

During the interview, most citizens didn't realize the safety problems caused by wind protection. Many citizens think that after installing the windshield, as long as the speed slows down and you drive carefully, there will be no safety problems. Many people think that the thicker the windshield, the better. Some citizens clearly know that the flexibility of driving an electric car is affected after installing a windshield, but they will install it to keep out the cold.

Ms. Wang, who lives in Yingyuan Community of Kuiwen District, said that whenever the weather gets cold, she will install a windshield on the electric car. "After the installation, the whole car became very heavy, especially when turning, which was very unstable. But it's too cold without it. As long as you pay more attention, there should be no danger. " Ms. Wang said.

Ms. Li, who lives in Renhe Shengting Community in Economic Zone, bought a thick windshield from 38 yuan on the Internet some time ago. "It's too cold in winter. Ride an electric car to keep out the cold by the wind. Of course, the thicker the better, the head I bought can be wrapped together. " Ms. Li said.

Mr. Zhang, who lives in Shi Jia Community, Fuhai, High-tech Zone, had a traffic accident because of the windshield before. He knew there was a safety hazard in using the windshield, so he bought a portable one. "Last winter, because the windshield was too heavy, I turned and fell to the ground. Now I dare not use that thick windshield. " Mr. Zhang said.

sell

There are many kinds and the prices are not too expensive.

It sells well when the weather gets cold.

The reporter searched the shopping website and found that the price of electric vehicle windshield is generally around 30 yuan, with the highest price not exceeding 100 yuan. They are made of rain-proof cloth or PU, with silk cotton and space cotton in the middle and blankets in the inner layer. Most of the styles are "all-round" structure with "arm protection and waist protection". The handlebar is connected with the rider's waist with buttons or ropes, and some even have high collars. On Taobao, the reporter found that a windshield with a price of 26.9 yuan has been purchased by more than 200,000 people.

Many shops are also selling all kinds of electric car windshields, not only in many colors, but also in different styles and materials, and some have sleeves, just like a cotton-padded coat that is worn backwards.

Mr. Zhang, a shopkeeper in Weifang Commodity City, said that the windshield of electric cars sold best after the cold weather. "The wind resisted the cold well. This year, upgraded versions of hand, arm, abdomen and leg protectors were released, which were warmer than usual. It is cheap in 20 yuan and expensive in 60 yuan, which is very affordable. " Mr. Zhang said.

The reporter saw that the upgraded version of the windshield is mostly "fully enclosed" structure of "arm protection and waist protection", and some even connected gloves, almost tying the rider to the electric car. In case of emergency, it is difficult to jump out of the car quickly.

remind

There is a safety hazard in the windshield.

It is best not to wear waist protectors.

Police officer Li Shuqiang reminded the public that although the windshield can bring warmth, there are no small safety hazards during use. Some windproof legs are tightly wrapped. In the event of an emergency during riding, the rider's legs and feet are easily caught and can't respond in time in a short time, causing people and cars to fall together. After putting on the waist protector and chest protector, it is equivalent to "bundling" the rider and the electric car together. Once the vehicle is skewed, the cyclist can't abandon the vehicle and escape, so it is easy to be crushed under the vehicle. Some windshields are too wide and thick, which may scrape with other vehicles around them when the traffic volume is large, causing traffic accidents.

It's really cold to ride an electric car in winter, and it's not impossible to use a windshield, but it's best not to use a waist-protecting, too thick windshield to avoid affecting people's reaction speed in an emergency. "Citizens should pay attention to slow down and pay more attention to the surrounding situation when riding an electric car in winter. Don't be too strict. " Li Shuqiang said.
