Which highway in China has the most car accidents? Why does it happen? What is the reason? Is the design unreasonable? Data support

It’s hard to say which highway has the most accidents. The country doesn’t seem to have released relevant data. It can happen on any highway, not necessarily at that time. It’s unpredictable. Even if the highway with the most accidents currently has the most accidents, it will happen after a while. Not necessarily. The winding mountain roads mentioned to the previous people should be very likely to happen, but this is not the case. They will be highly concentrated on that kind of road and dare not be careless. On the contrary, on ordinary roads, the driver will be a little relaxed. As a result. .

Because many people are not clear about some detailed rules of the highway, it causes catastrophe. If every driver reads the following article carefully, accidents will definitely be reduced

1. Stop. Stop, stop!

I want to put the most important thing first. What are you most afraid of when driving on the highway? It's parking! If you stop in high-speed traffic and the road is blocked for whatever reason, the most terrible thing may happen. Here I want to focus on small cars. In this situation, when the driver of a small car finds that the road ahead is blocked, he must immediately look in the rear mirror to see if there is a large truck following you. If so, he must slow down in advance and turn on the double flashing lights to remind him. Pay attention to the car behind you and give the big car behind you enough distance and time to slow down. If the big car behind you honks its horn or flashes its lights at you, believe me, it must not be able to brake, and you must speed up. Drill in the emergency parking lane! Even if it scratches your car. each year! Every year we encounter several such accidents: due to road blockage, a small car parked behind a large car waiting to be released. As a result, the large car behind hit it, and the front of the large car behind hit the rear of the large car in front! Where is the car? ! Two people, three people, four people, five people! How many people in the car mean how many lives there are! The car frame with a thickness of several millimeters becomes thinner than paper under the impact of dozens or hundreds of tons of weight! Don't be superstitious about what kind of car you are riding in, and don't think you are safe. I have seen a Hongqi car that was compressed to only one meter long after being opened. I have seen a van that was crushed into iron sheets. I have seen people trapped in the fire. With twisted figures and howls, I have seen heads of people squeezed so tightly that they were only two fingers wide. You may ask, why didn’t the big car behind stop? Believe me, it’s not that he didn’t want to stop, he wanted to stop the car so much! But have you ever seen a truck that carries nine tons but pulls fifty tons? Have you ever seen a tanker with a nuclear load of 19 tons but an actual load of 90 tons? Have you ever seen a Big Mac with a nuclear load of 30 tons but an actual load of 130 tons? The traffic police no longer allow penalties for unloading overloaded vehicles. If you look at the large trucks on the road, nine and a half out of ten vehicles are more or less overloaded. If you don't overload, you will make no profit, and if you don't overload, you will lose money! That's far from a problem that the traffic police alone can solve. When it comes to situations, especially on downhill roads, you can't stop these big semi-trailers even if you tie a hundred cows behind them! Let’s not mention it here for now. We still want to advise all small car drivers who encounter traffic jams. After stopping the car, even if there is a knife outside, you must get out of the car and move to the outside of the road quickly until there are more than seven or eight large cars in the back of your car. Get back to your car! Why wait for seven or eight cars? In 2006, I had a car that hit a record of thirteen cars in a row. No one in our team has been able to break it. Which car do you want to be? If it doesn't work, just walk forward from the emergency parking lane. After walking for 200 to 300 meters, find an empty space to vacate the parking lane. It's cheaper to let the traffic police fine you 200 yuan than to kill you! Here, the same sentence remains: the emergency parking lane is a life passage! An escape route for you!

2. Controls when a tire blows out

I just mentioned a vehicle tire blowout. When driving at high speed, the consequences of a small car blowout, especially a front wheel blowout, are far greater than a big car blowout. Although a tire blowout is unpredictable due to a serious tire blowout, we often find an interesting phenomenon in our accident handling: if the left front wheel blowout causes the vehicle to lose control and hit the guardrail, it will often hit the right guardrail, and vice versa.

The reason is that when a vehicle has a tire blowout, due to the difference in tire diameter and friction coefficient, the vehicle's running trajectory will be biased in the direction of the tire blowout. The left front wheel with a blowout will move to the left, and the right front wheel with a blowout will move to the right, while the driver is turning. When correcting, the pointing performance is reflected slowly on a vehicle that has a flat tire. In addition, the panic caused by the flat tire often leads to over-correction, which artificially aggravates the vehicle's loss of control, causing the left front wheel to burst and hit the right side instead. Guardrails, or even hitting the left and right guardrails multiple times in a row. The correct approach is to hold the direction tightly when the vehicle has a tire blowout. No matter which direction the vehicle's front is tilted, give a fixed correction angle (related to your actual vehicle speed) and maintain it with force. At the same time, do not apply emergency braking, because at this time The braking ability of the vehicle is unbalanced in the longitudinal direction. Keep the deceleration behavior under control and strive to maintain the original driving trajectory. Do not make sudden direction corrections.

3. Speeding

Everyone knows the dangers of speeding, whether it is local or highway, it will cause irreparable consequences. If you drive a car with a speed of 100 kilometers per hour, assuming you are 170cm tall, the physiological reaction time from when your eyes notice the situation to when your brain makes a judgment and then reflects on the brakes is about 1.7 seconds, and at this time your vehicle Already traveled 47.2M. 40 meters away! How many helpless lives will it contain! We once checked for speeding on a road section with a speed limit of 70km/h (we only recorded it at 110km), and a small car actually went 203km/h. Looking at the photo, we all said that this driver will be reimbursed sooner or later, and it will be his life. Life is in his hands and no one else can do anything about it. Regarding speeding, I have only two words: one is "nine out of ten disasters", and the other is don't be superstitious about "good cars". Some people often superstitiously believe that their cars are good and their performance is good, but everyone is equal in life. We have a BMW 745, a Porsche Cayenne, and an S80. It doesn’t matter whether it’s a Japanese car or a European car. As long as there’s an accident due to speeding, you will die or be injured without any delay. The highest highway speed limit in our country is 120KM/H. This is the legal maximum speed written in the safety law. This is not unfounded. According to foreign data, if a car with a speed exceeding 160KM has a tire blowout accident, no matter you Whether seat belts are worn or not, the fatality rate for drivers and passengers is 100! Remember, it’s not 50, it’s not 99, it’s 100! For those drivers who like to press the accelerator to the bottom as soon as they get on the highway, pray that your tires are safe and sound.

4. Safety inspection before driving

Is this still a problem caused by a flat tire? This is a very accidental factor. You said your car is a new one? We have a new car with less than 5,000 kilometers that has a flat tire. As for the car model, I am not comfortable talking about it here, but I can reveal that it is the most common family car of ** company with a price of about 100,000 yuan. In addition to checking the tires before traveling, there are also engine oil problems. Lubricant problems, cooling fluid problems, and even wipers and glass wipers must be carefully checked. We once broke down the wiper when we got off work. Oddly enough, it was the left wiper. It happened to be raining and sleeting that day. You can imagine what we were doing. How to get back home after traveling dozens of kilometers! I can’t bear to look back. This is a highway, with nowhere to go. Fortunately, we are police cars and are familiar with the road conditions. We drove with our double flashers and police lights on, tilting our necks and insisting on getting off the road. If it had been anyone else, they would have suffered. , or it will be easy to be in danger.

After returning home and checking the vehicle, it turned out that a screw was missing from the wiper connecting rod. The repair cost was less than a dime, which caused so much trouble and hidden danger!

5. Highway markings, signs and warnings

I believe that many drivers who often use the highway will find that there are warning signs and warning lights of this kind and other along the highway from time to time. I didn't pay much attention to these things when I didn't drive on the expressway before, but after working for the past few years, I deeply realized that every "accident-prone road section, please drive with caution", when you see similar warning signs on the road, you must We must consciously reduce the speed and keep the distance between vehicles, and be prepared to deal with emergencies.

6. Try to avoid driving at night

In the current reality of our country, this is a nationwide A general rule: there are far more large trucks driving at night than on the road during the day. In our place, just talking about large trucks, the ratio of day to night can reach 1:5 or even higher. When patrolling at night, there is a row of white lights on the left and a row of red lights on the right, with no end in sight. This once confused us. However, the visibility is good during the day and the traffic volume is small. Why do so many trucks stay up day and night? So much so that we often stayed up all night to deal with the police. Later, through chatting with the driver involved, I learned that during the day, you have to load and unload goods, repair vehicles, and find people for errands. And most importantly, road administration, over-limit and traffic police are all on the road during the day, so driving at night is less troublesome! This results in nighttime being a time of high incidence of various accidents. As drivers and passengers of small cars, when driving at night, the traffic volume and density are high, and the "unpleasant" driving is secondary. The most important thing is that most of the drivers of large cars who have been busy all day are suspected of being involved in the crime. Fatigue driving, unlicensed driving, illegal driving, etc. are largely involved, posing greater safety risks to driving. Moreover, the seat of the big car is high, and the high isolation of the highway cannot block the string of headlights coming from the opposite direction. The driver of the big car is almost driving in a semi-dazzled state. Are you willing to be with such drivers along the way? Galloping?

7. Use flashing lights to remind you when overtaking

The highway is fast and noisy. Your car horn cannot be heard by the car in front of you. When overtaking, you should use far and near flashing lights to remind you. It is more useful to hit the other side; and, when you find that there are two or more large trucks in the driving lane that are relatively close to each other, when overtaking, you have to be careful of the large truck behind you suddenly changing lanes to overtake. If you happen to run next to him at that time, then But you really have to resign yourself to fate. Believe me, if half of those large trucks that change lanes to overtake can take a look in the rear mirror before changing lanes, you are considered an Amitabha. Not to mention that you are a small car, which is not easy to be found and is faster. . Moreover, when overtaking at night, do not always use high beam. When you are two to three hundred meters away from the rear of the vehicle being overtaken, it is best to switch to low beam, so that the car in front can better judge the distance between you and it and avoid accidents. Misjudgment, you know, letting other vehicles see you more clearly on the road is just as important as whether you can see each other clearly. Speaking of which, I remembered that in the city, there are often motorcycles and motor vehicles that do not turn on their lights at night or use high beams to meet other vehicles. They think they can see the road and other cars clearly, but can others see them clearly? Those are selfish and inconsiderate people, and I have always despised these people.

8. Do not occupy emergency parking lanes in non-emergency situations. Emergency parking lanes, as the name suggests, are lanes that can only be used in emergencies.

9. Protect the scene? Stay safe!

The highway section under the jurisdiction of our brigade is about 170 kilometers. In the past, accidents were always done three shifts at a time. Later, with the increase in personnel and in order to dispatch the police quickly (sometimes arriving at the scene ten minutes early may save a car) (Human life) We are divided into two accident alarm points, each with its own jurisdiction, but it is like this. It takes two or three hours to go around in its own jurisdiction.

Sometimes we often receive accident reports like this: a simple scrape or rear-end collision occurred between the two parties. The facts are not in dispute, there are no casualties, there is little financial damage, and the vehicle can move. However, no matter how we try to persuade on the phone, both parties refuse to do so. Move your car to the side of the road! We must go to the scene to "take pictures" before we move the car! Seventy or eighty kilometers! The fastest would be forty minutes an hour! Sometimes, for the sake of losing a hundred yuan, two cars would block traffic on the road, causing the road to be blocked for more than ten kilometers! When I meet such a driver, I feel so bad about him! For your own slight benefit, you ignore the traffic police's advice and go your own way. What if your vehicle is stuck on the road and causes a secondary accident? What should you do if your vehicle gets stuck on the road, blocking the road behind and causing an accident? What is certain is that if another accident occurs, the damage to people and property will be greater than your small accident. If the parties involved in the subsequent accident sue you, although you may not be legally responsible, you will be 100% liable for compensation. responsibility!

If an accident with minor property damage occurs on a highway, if there are no casualties, both parties have no objections to the cause, and the vehicle has the ability to move, the vehicle must be moved to the emergency parking lane. Nowadays, almost everyone With a mobile phone with a camera function, you can use your mobile phone to take two photos of the original scene before the train. Of course, it is best to communicate with the police on duty on the phone. Don’t worry, when encountering such a "mobile scene", the high-speed accident traffic police will definitely I won’t make it difficult for you!

10. After the accident

Of course, what I mentioned above is just a simple accident with small financial losses. If your vehicle is involved in a major property damage accident or even casualty accident on the highway, you must not move on the scene (except to rescue the injured). This will involve two more important things: setting up warning signs and calling the police. . If a traffic accident occurs on a highway and the vehicle cannot move, a warning sign must be set up 150 meters away from the accident scene in the direction of the vehicle, and personnel must move outside the highway guardrail. Remember: it must be 150 meters away. If a secondary accident occurs because the warning sign you set cannot reach this distance, then our accident police will definitely hold you responsible for the secondary accident. In the end, At least it is secondary or even equal! Unfortunately, based on my experience on the highway in the past few years, no one involved is willing to put warning signs in place, really! Not one! I was impressed by someone who could set up a sign fifty meters behind the car! I still remember that at midnight last summer, when an old comrade from the team and I were patrolling back to our work unit, we discovered a traffic accident that had just occurred in the half-way downhill driveway on the opposite side. Four or five people involved in two large trucks acted "as if nothing had happened." The person was either lying down or lying on the road behind the accident scene, which frightened the two of us into trying to get the person out of the guardrail. Within three to five minutes, another large truck drove across the road where the person was lying just now. I hit the accident scene three or four meters away in front of me! It is true that my legs were not soft at that time. If we had not met by chance on the road, but had received a call from the person involved to call the police and showed up at the scene, then none of the four or five people behind the car would be left! Of course, if your vehicle does not have a warning triangle or a cone, you can also borrow a colorful travel bag, an oil drum, or even a tree branch on the roadside, but don’t move rocks! Then the nature has changed! When it comes to calling the police, often after an accident occurs, the first call is to the wife and children, the second is to a friend, and the third is to the insurance company. By the time he thinks of calling the police, it has been an hour since the accident! If a secondary accident occurs because of this, I'm sorry, but you will still have to bear the legal responsibility for the secondary accident! After an accident, three things are indispensable: setting up warning signs, moving people off the road, and calling the police in a timely manner. If any irregularity in any link aggravates the consequences of the accident or directly leads to the occurrence of a secondary accident, the parties involved must bear corresponding legal responsibilities. . Don’t worry, the insurance company’s reporting time is limited to 48 hours, and you can still report it the next day. Why do you have to evade the most important things in a dangerous scene?
