Recently, there has been rain and snow in many parts of the country, but the truck driver's journey to pull goods continues. The impact of severe cold and snow on truck drivers is very significant.
The impact of snow on cardholders
1. Reduced visibility: Snow can cause reduced visibility and cause great inconvenience to driving.
Slippery road hazards:The road surface is prone to ice or water accumulation after snow, and vehicles are prone to slipping and loss of control.
Loss of goods:Due to the sudden drop in temperature, the goods may be damaged or deteriorated, causing losses to transportation.
Driving fatigue:Driving in a cold environment can easily make people feel tired and sleepy.
In this regard, we have prepared some for all cardholdersDriving tips in rain and snowto ensure safe travel.
Slow down
Slowing down is a must when driving in rain and snow, because the rain and snow road is easy to make the vehicle skid, and it is difficult to brake the car completely if the speed is too fast. Slowing down can prevent various situations and reduce the braking distance of the car.
Pay attention to the driving safety distance
Many accidents in rainy and snowy weather are caused by a series of rear-end collisions caused by a decrease in braking performance and insufficient safety distance, so in this weather, the vehicle must maintain a safety distance of more than four times the usual one.
Turn the wheel lightly
In rainy and snowy weather, the steering wheel should be turned lightly, because the friction between the tire and the road surface in rainy and snowy weather is reduced, and if the steering wheel is turned sharply, it is easy to cause the vehicle to slide and other phenomena.
Gently apply the brakes
Gently pressing on the brakes is the correct way to use the brakes when driving in snowy conditions, and slamming on the brakes may cause the trailer to push the head, so in the case of sufficient distance, repeatedly press the brakes lightly to slow down the speed of the vehicle.
Pay attention to slow down corners
When cornering, try to choose the outside of the big bend to pass, and the speed of the car should not be too fast. When encountering a sharp bend, be sure to slow down in advance and pass the sharp bend slowly in a slow state.
Downhill, take advantage of the engine to slow down
Never rely on brakes: When going downhill, try to use the engine's braking force to slow down, rather than relying too heavily on brakes.
Use snow chains
If the road conditions are particularly poor, consider using snow chains to increase the friction of the vehicle on snow or mud and prevent skidding;
