When driving, the driver of the car should maintain a safe distance from the car in front of him, leaving sufficient reaction time and braking distance. Winter snow and ice road safety distance should be maintained in other seasons dry road safety distance of 2 to 3 times;

05

Control the speed and correct braking

In bad weather conditions such as rain and fog and frost, the friction coefficient of the road surface will be reduced, affecting the braking efficiency of the vehicle, and it is easy to slip. Therefore, when driving through a road that is easy to cause slippage, the driver of the car should strictly control the speed, and the vehicle side slip situation must not be sharply turned in direction or emergency braking, and the engine should be fully used to slow down;

06

Take care to check the tires

Winter temperature is cold, rubber in the low temperature environment is relatively hard, brittle, so whether the air pressure is suitable directly affects the tire life and driving safety. If the air pressure is too low, the tire wall bend will increase, and the low temperature will easily break the tire wall rubber; the air pressure is too high will reduce the grip of the tire. Car drivers should pay attention to checking whether the inflation of each tire is balanced;

07

Clear the fog in time

Winter car in the driving process due to indoor and outdoor temperature difference will make the window condensation fog, with a warm air to remove the fog at the same time to open the front door and window a little, the effect is very rapid and effective.

08

Prevent fatigue driving

In winter, the car uses air conditioning insulation, and when driving for a long time, the driver is prone to fatigue, resulting in a decrease in the driver's judgment ability, slow response, and increased operational errors. If you drive the vehicle reluctantly, a traffic accident can occur. Therefore, when driving for a long time, the car driver should have sufficient sleep, when feeling tired, he should drive away from the road in time, stop in a safe area to rest, reduce fatigue and then continue to drive the vehicle, and it is strictly forbidden to drive the vehicle with fatigue;

Three-wheeled vehicles are prohibited from carrying people

Vehicles such as three-wheeled vehicles, tractors and low-speed trucks are not vehicles carrying people, lack of safety protection measures for passengers, mainly used for agricultural production activities, generally larger body, high center of gravity, and poor vehicle safety performance. When such vehicles drive, turn or turn around under road conditions such as potholes and steep slopes, they are prone to roll over, resulting in casualties. When an agricultural vehicle collides with other vehicles, due to the lack of protective measures, it is easy to lead to mass casualty accidents;

10

Safety helmets should be worn when driving motorcycles and electric vehicles

Motorcycles, electric vehicles are flexible but the stability is poor, in the event of accidents disability rate, fatality rate is extremely high, therefore, motorcycles and electric vehicle occupants should wear appropriate helmets in accordance with the regulations, according to scientific data, wearing high-quality motorcycle helmets can effectively reduce head injuries, reduce the risk of death by 40%, and reduce the risk of serious injuries by more than 40%.
