The fortune teller said he could live to be 99, so he could do whatever he wanted in the car …

Years ago, Uncle Che went to the temple and met an old monk sweeping the floor when he left the temple gate. He said Uncle Che could live to be 99 years old. Since then, Uncle Che has become a road racer. Playing the steering wheel is like playing mahjong, and stepping on the gas pedal is like long jump. He kicked his legs with all his strength, and he was very headstrong!

How is that possible? Don't believe Uncle Che's story. Near the end of the year, safety naturally comes first, so driving like this, even if "God gives another 500 years" is not enough! Uncle Che consulted the data provided by security organizations around the world and found some behaviors that are most likely to cause accidents. Drivers should look carefully and don't do the following things.

drunk driving

According to the data of the British Ministry of Transport, almost every driver has drunk driving. In 20 17, the number of drunk driving deaths in Britain rose to 250. Even at the auto show "Top? In the gear position, the "three inferior people" are also used to driving while drinking. Although it has been emphasized many times, some people are lucky enough to drive after drinking, which deserves many people's reflection.

fatigue driving

A survey in 20 18 showed that 13% of British drivers fell asleep while driving. 37% people said they were very worried about fatigue driving.

According to AAA American Automobile Association, sleeping less than 5 hours before driving is as dangerous as drunk driving. Whether it's red bull or espresso, it doesn't matter whether you drink it or not. The only antidote to drowsiness is sleep. So when you feel tired, please take a nap for 20 minutes.

Over-reliance on electronic systems

With the development of science and technology, many cars are equipped with self-adaptive cruise, lane keeping assistance, automatic braking and other assisted driving, but this is not a mature unmanned driving and cannot be over-relied.

Even if you have a high-end electronic system, you should follow the instructions, put your hands on the steering wheel and keep your eyes on the road when driving.

Use the touch control panel

More and more cars are equipped with touch-type central control panel, which has complicated interface design and is inconvenient to use. For example, if you want to adjust the temperature of the air conditioner, you must open two or three pages before adjusting it, which will distract the driver. Don't be too distracted by the operation of the central control panel when driving.

There is not enough distance between cars.

Sometimes old drivers are so confident in their driving skills that they dare to shorten the distance between the front and rear cars to less than 10 meter even at high speed. This is very dangerous, you know, people need time to react, and they will rear-end if they are not careful.

Play mobile phone while driving.

If you see a slow lane on the road, there must be a car ahead and the driver is playing with his mobile phone. American AAA survey shows that 465,438+0.3% drivers admit to reading mobile phone information while driving, and even 32.65,438+0% drivers say they have replied to the information.

Ignore recall information

Car recalls are free. If there is a recall, the 4S shop will usually contact you to deal with the hidden dangers in the car. Ignoring hidden dangers may cause safety problems, such as the recall caused by Takada airbag failure, which should be dealt with in time, otherwise a safety accident will really occur.

This car is not regularly maintained.

Automobile maintenance not only plays the role of maintaining automobile machinery, but also can find some safety hazards. Such as coolant leakage, oil leakage, tire bulging, etc. , may cause the car to break down. If left untreated for a long time, the problem will become serious, from increasing maintenance costs to causing vehicle accidents.

Driving waves in extreme weather

What is extreme weather? The weather that affects driving counts. Mountain torrents, earthquakes, heavy rains, heavy fog, heavy snow, etc. It's all extreme weather At this time, even if the car has a four-wheel drive system, don't wave, stay at home honestly, it's really unsafe to go out and drive.

High speed driving

Students who have studied the law of conservation of kinetic energy should be able to deduce the fact that the braking distance changes with the change of vehicle speed and increases exponentially. For example, the parking distance of 20km/h is 2m, that of 40km/h is 8m, and that of 60km/h is 18m.

By analogy, when driving fast, although the speed has increased a little, the braking distance has increased a lot. In Britain, 33% of traffic accidents are caused by speeding every year.

Drive a slow train

It's dangerous to drive too fast because you can't react. Although it seems safe to drive slowly, the danger is that if you drive slowly, the rear car will see that your brakes don't respond, leading to rear-end collision, which is equally dangerous.

To sum up, you can drive slowly on the open road, because you won't hinder the traffic. But on the road, especially on the highway, when the traffic is heavy, don't deliberately "catch the ox cart".

Put your feet on the dashboard.

First of all, it is impolite, because it is very impolite to sit in someone else's car and put your feet on the dashboard of someone else's car. Even if the host doesn't object, he may be jealous.

Secondly, it is very dangerous, because the co-pilot airbag is right under your feet. If there is an accident and the airbag bounces off, your foot may be shot in the face due to the impact of the airbag bursting.

Turn off the lights at night

Nowadays, cars are basically equipped with LED daytime running lights, but at night, many car owners forget to turn on the headlights or think that daytime running lights are enough.

In fact, even if there are street lamps in the urban area, you need to turn on the low beam lighting, because you may encounter small electric donkeys without lights everywhere on the road, and you can find them in time by turning on the low beam lighting.

Due to various reasons, traffic accidents keep happening. For the sake of safety, you can't drive too carefully. Even if the fortune teller says he can live to be 99, that's only if he can't do anything in the car. Near the end of the year, safety first, and cherish.
