Grandma was killed on the way back from sending her grandson to school this morning. What was the cause of the car accident?

On the morning of September 27th, a car accident happened in Sheyang County, Yancheng City. An old lady riding an electric bicycle to send her grandson to school was knocked down by a private car on her way back and died unfortunately. Let many netizens feel sad.

"Grandma sent her grandson to school in the morning and had an accident on her way back." According to the onlookers, it happened around 7 am, and the deceased was a nearby villager, aged 66.

At present, the accident handling traffic police have investigated the scene, and the driver involved has also been brought back to the public security organ for questioning, initially judging that "the accident is suspected to be caused by neglecting to observe the road conditions."

This undoubtedly sounded the alarm for us, that is, pay attention to traffic safety. In addition to being cautious and slow, you should also obey the traffic rules, especially when driving in accident-prone sections.

At the same time, I remembered a question that has been hotly debated and even criticized by netizens some time ago, that is, whether to wear a helmet when riding an electric car. Many people don't agree with this. They think that if there is this regulation, it will be too strict and harsh for ordinary people, which will increase their burden. Wearing a helmet is not very beautiful and comfortable. "After all, the speed of electric cars is not fast."

But now, even without this rule, we should encourage everyone to wear helmets as much as possible when traveling by bike. Safety is above everything else. Wearing a helmet may be only a temporary discomfort, but it may save a person's life at a critical moment.

Remember the following sets of data.

In traffic accidents involving electric vehicles, the most important type of injury that leads to death is head injury. Head injuries are more fatal than injuries in other parts. According to statistics, nearly half or even more of the fatal traffic accidents in China every year are drivers of two-wheeled vehicles, and among these drivers, 60% to 70% died of head injuries caused by not wearing helmets. It can be seen that driving a tricycle without wearing a helmet is the main reason for the high mortality rate of tricycle drivers and passengers.

Wearing a helmet helps to reduce the casualty rate and is an effective means to reduce casualties caused by traffic accidents, which can reduce the proportion of injured people by 70% and the mortality rate by 40%.

It can be said that a good helmet is equivalent to a life-saving amulet. The use of helmets can greatly reduce the mortality rate and minimize the injuries caused by car accidents. The head injury rate without helmet is 2.5 times that with helmet, and the fatal injury without helmet is 1.5 times that with helmet.

Another problem that deserves our deep thought is the problem of sending children to school. It is actually a big problem to send children to and from school now. Children in many families have to be transferred to grandparents because of their parents' work, which undoubtedly increases many security risks. After all, these old people are old people, and riding an electric car is definitely not as sensitive as young people, and it is more prone to traffic accidents.

If this happens in your family, it's best to warn the elderly to be cautious, travel safely and pick up the children. You can choose a safer way to travel, such as taking public transportation.

In addition, for remote rural areas, we can consider providing school buses to transport children to and from school, which will also reduce many security risks to a certain extent.
