How to ensure safety when following a car and avoid being blocked?

Hello, the following is my daily driving experience, I hope it will be helpful to you.

(1) How to ensure safety when following a car.

1: When following a vehicle while it is moving, we must first concentrate on ourselves and not be distracted. Look as far ahead as possible, at least you can see the car in front of you. Why do we need to see the vehicle in front of us? Because if we only look at the vehicle in front of us, if the driver of the vehicle in front of us is distracted and does not pay attention to the braking of the vehicle in front of him, a rear-end collision will occur. When we see him rear-end us, we brake again, so that our reaction time is shortened. If we see the vehicle in front of him braking, even if he does not brake, we can slow down in time behind him. Prevent the distance from being too close and the reaction time is short, resulting in a rear-end collision.

2: How to follow a car safely when driving at high speed. First, keep a safe distance from the car in front. There is a three-second rule, which is to watch the car in front of you pass a certain point, and then count three seconds in your mind until you reach this point. This three seconds is the time left for us to react. Second, the central rearview mirror and the left and right rearview mirrors should be observed frequently.

3: Follow the car on the uphill section. When following a car on an uphill section, especially on an uphill and congested section, you must follow a car farther than usual to prevent the car in front of you from slipping away.

(2) How not to be blocked!

Being stuck in traffic jams usually happens on congested roads. Some of our novice drivers don’t know the position of the front of their cars well. They are afraid of rear-end collisions if they are too close, and they will be blocked if they are too far. This is where we can use the lower edge of the front windshield of our own car as a reference point, and align the lower edge of the front windshield with the upper edge of the rear bumper of the car in front. At this time, the distance between us and the car in front is about 1.78 meters, so if there is a problem with the vehicle in front, we can come out from the side even if we have full direction. This distance is safe and no one else can get in. If we encounter someone forcing us to block our way, we should try our best to give in, just in case they are in a hurry. If we are in an emergency, we also hope that others will excuse us and let us pass.

Speed ??is not the first priority, safety is the shortest way home. This is a slogan I see every day!

It’s normal to be blocked while driving. Some people think you are driving slowly, or you think others are too slow. I have been driving for two and a half years, and I have always adhered to the principle of safety first. It is okay to cut off, but at least you must be polite. When the turn signal is turned on, I will take the initiative to slow down and give way.

Forced blocking is very dangerous. If the vehicle being blocked is too angry to stop, accidents may easily occur. There are too many such incidents. Therefore, you must pay attention to driving regulations when driving. Safety is the most important thing.

Don’t block things casually when it rains. The view is not very good on rainy days, so be as safe as possible.
