It's raining, it's snowing, and awnings can come in handy. But the risks also come ......
We can see an electric car or motorcycle installed with a parasol at any time, this umbrella can shelter the wind in winter, rain in rainy days, and more in summer to block the scorching sun, so it does play a big role, but few people think that this will actually have serious safety risks, and if you don't get the parasol well, it will become a "life-threatening umbrella......".
I don't dare to look at the tragic case directly, but I still want to ** an online news.
In April 2016, a traffic accident occurred in Jiujiang City, Jiangxi Province. The car collided with the opposite motorcycle, and unexpectedly, due to the accident, the motorcycle driver was scraped in the abdomen by the parasol device and unfortunately died.
The hazards of awnings can be highlighted in bad weather.
First, after installing the canopy, the direction of the vehicle is heavier, especially when turning. It's a lot heavier than not having a canopy at all, because it's always going in one direction. The direction of rotation is not as flexible.
Second, the resistance is much greater when riding. Because of this canopy, the whole cross-sectional area is too large, the faster the speed in the riding process, the greater the resistance, which virtually causes a very large resistance to the electric vehicle, and the battery consumes more power to overcome these resistances, and the mileage of the vehicle is obviously shortened a lot.
Third, there are security risks. For example, when there are vehicles around, cars or large trucks passing quickly, it is difficult for the car to hold it steady, and the car is easy to be "sucked" over. There are potential safety hazards in installing canopies, and many people have a fluke mentality, saying that the chance of this happening is very small, but it is not good to really happen to themselves. No matter what type of umbrella canopy, it is an additional product, and these additional products will affect the safety performance of the vehicle, so it is better to be cautious.
For your own safety and the safety of others, please do not wear parasols on electric vehicles and motorcycles. You can choose to wear a raincoat in rainy weather, ride a bus under the scorching sun, and you can choose to wear sunscreen clothing and a sunhat.
Rather than risking an accident, choosing to drench the chicken under the raincoat is more suitable for us ordinary people.
