It's the peak summer travel season
Whether it's a domestic trip or an outbound trip
Passenger cars are a common means of travel transportation
What should I pay attention to when riding a bus?
How do you escape in case of danger?
There are 3 safety points to keep in mind when traveling by bus
· Seat belt = life belt
Wear your seatbelt throughout the ride and don't untie it in the middle of the ride. In the event of a passenger car impact, due to the large amount of space in the vehicle and the large number of seats, if the passenger is not wearing a seat belt, the range of movement due to the impact is also greater, and the probability of danger is higher.
· Pay attention to the position of the safety hammer
Observe and keep in mind the location of the vehicle's safety hammer so that in the event of an accident, find it as soon as possible. In case of emergency, passengers can use a safety hammer to break the side window glass to escape.
· Do not ride in overcrowded vehicles
The increase in the load capacity of overcrowded vehicles and the exceedance of vehicle design, manufacturing and use standards will adversely affect all aspects of vehicle performance. Passengers are requested to consciously resist overcrowded buses and report to the local traffic management department in a timely manner.
Passenger car accidents Keep in mind the 3 escape routes
· Door
1. When the door is open, get out of the car through the nearest door.
2. If the door cannot be opened, cut off the gas path through the emergency switch and open the door to escape. Depending on the model, the location of the emergency switch is different, some are next to the driver's seat, and some are near the door.
· Window
You can use the tip of the safety hammer to slam the four corners of the window glass to break the window to escape. Safety hammers are usually hung on the window frame. If you can't find the hammer for a while, you can replace it with another pointed hard object.
· Emergency escape skylight
Some buses are equipped with sunroofs with safety exits. Rotate the button on the sunroof and push it out to open.
