Once upon a time, "Spring Festival" was one of our "characteristics".
The annual "Spring Festival" is no longer spectacular, and the dense congestion between various traffic stations is far from being expressible, and even reaches the level of "horror".
Every year, itinerant people flock to traffic stations from all directions at fixed times.
Not to mention the operation, just buying tickets is a big problem. Many people queue for a long time in a row just to be able to buy a ticket, sometimes it may even be a standing ticket, and sometimes, they may have been queuing for a long time, and it is their turn to be told that the ticket is gone. As a result, there are full-time "scalpers" who resell all kinds of tickets. A ticket can be doubled by "scalpers", which is also difficult to buy.
If you're lucky enough to buy a ticket, whether you have a seat or not, it's a great luck.
Next, the most "uncomfortable" trip begins. First of all, when you get on the bus, you have to go through the "war" of World War I. Many people are desperately squeezing into the car, carrying large and small packages on their backs, and some are still carrying and holding hands. In such a situation, if you want to show "Sven" and "politeness", you can only leave yourself in the carriage. Even in a tense situation, some people first threw their packages through the window, and then themselves entered through the window with the help of others. In short, I have to try my best to "stuff" myself and my things into the carriage.
On the road, it is not easy to move.
In the corridors, aisles, under the seats, and in every gap of the carriage are people standing, sitting, or lying down. Whatever position you start to take somewhere in the car, you basically hold it until the end. Space is limited, and if you change your position through "hard work", you may never get it back.
Trains are not easy to buy tickets, cars are also not easy to buy tickets, trains can be overloaded, cars are not, and the hard seats of general trains are cheaper than bus tickets, and the safety is better.
Airplanes are largely not considered. People who are busy running around outside are so that they can bring back a year's income so that their families can have a good year, and they can have money in the coming year, and they are generally willing to spend more money, so the travel mode of "high-end business people" such as taking a plane is not within the scope of most people's considerations.
Some migrant workers are also linked, riding motorcycles from distant places to ride home for the New Year. Therefore, there is also an "army of motorcycles", who are also a special part of the "Spring Festival".
At that time, when the Chinese New Year was approaching, the question that everyone was more concerned about was: Did you buy the ticket?It's not that there are no tickets to buy. There are many people who pay attention to when to start selling tickets all day long, and some people buy tickets at the ticket office at a higher price, or buy tickets from "scalpers" in advance. There are also some who really don't have a ticket, so they may cancel their plans to go home.
At that time, a "People in Embarrassment" staged performed the Spring Festival in place.
Later, I started to buy tickets online, and the difficulty was relatively reduced, at least I didn't have to wait in line. Later, the real-name system for ticket purchase was implemented, and the "scalpers" were slowly and automatically "laid off".
Then, the high-speed rail started the construction process with its unique speed, and for a while, the high-speed rail basically replaced the original train in a short period of time, and also changed the main way people traveled. The most critical problem is that the speed has come up, which naturally greatly saves the time on the road, which is equivalent to a huge increase in capacity. Under the competition of high-speed rail, various airlines have begun to launch "** tickets". Aircraft that originally seemed "unattainable" have slowly entered people's choices.
Gradually, private cars became basically a standard for families.
Many people choose to travel in their own cars. Today's highway network extends in all directions, and there are many choices, if you want to go fast, you can take the highway, if you want to save money, you can choose the provincial road, if you want to take the shortcut, there are county and township roads to choose from. Coupled with the popularity of navigation, there is basically no need to worry about getting lost anywhere. And by driving yourself, you can carry people and pull things, which is very convenient.
List of high-quality authors Various modes of travel automatically realize the function of "diversion", and also greatly improve the "capacity" in disguise.
The problem of "Spring Festival", which used to plague the Chinese people, is no longer a problem.
