There is a possibility of snow accumulation near 11k in the direction of Haining on the Hangpu Expressway, so take a look and contact to deal with it. ”
At 11 o'clock in the evening of February 6, Yang Shengsong, an instructor of the first squadron of the sixth brigade of the Hangzhou Expressway Traffic Police Detachment, was patrolling to the Hangzhou-Pudong Expressway.
The snow in Hangzhou has been falling intermittently all day, and at this moment, it is still snowing in the direction of Yuhang and Linping.
In the dark night, only the police lights flashed red and blue.
In the second half of the night, a private car returning to his hometown sped past the police car, splashing water.

Because of the rain and snow, the display screen behind Yang Shengsong's police car has also been changed from "high-speed traffic police, patrolling" to "bad weather, slow down" to remind passing vehicles.
In this year's Spring Festival, many places across the country encountered extreme rain and snow, which was called "the most difficult way home in the past ten years" by netizens.
Especially in Hubei, Hunan, and Henan, freezing rain and heavy snow make the road back to their hometowns full of difficulties.
At this moment, the snowflakes in Hangzhou were fluttering, and Yang Shengsong and his colleagues were tense in their heartstrings.

Snow melt liquid and thermometer for peace of mind
Following Yang Shengsong all the way, in about 10 minutes, we arrived at the Linping toll station.
The operators and vehicles of the Hangzhou North Management Center of the Zhejiang Provincial Communications Group Expressway have been waiting here for a long time.
Now the situation is fine, if you don't use solids, you can use liquid snow melting agent first. As soon as Yang Shengsong got out of the car, the person in charge of the Hangzhou North Management Center stepped forward and communicated with him about the process of melting snow.
I think it's okay, the first time you go to the third lane, you can water the first and second lanes, the second time you take the second lane, and you can water the third and emergency lanes. ”
After reaching an agreement, everyone quickly got to work.

A construction truck with "high-speed construction work, pay attention to the distance between vehicles" opened the road, and the construction vehicle loaded with a box of snowmelt liquid was in the center, and Yang Shengsong's police car was reminded behind the mat.
After the truck starts, a construction worker operates a water pipe in the body and pours snowmelt liquid onto the road.
Like Yang Shengsong, in such rainy and snowy weather, the on-duty personnel of the high-speed owner unit are always on standby. Depending on the weather and road conditions, snow removal work should be carried out at any time at the high speed.

I have to keep a distance of more than 50 meters from the car in front of me to ensure the safety of the rear. Yang Shengsong said that the snow removal operation is an operation to ensure the safety of passing vehicles, and he is to ensure the safety of the operation.
The scope of this operation involves a bridge, because the steel truss bridge, which is more prone to ice than the road surface, is also the focus of this snow removal operation.

When he came to the bridge, Yang Shengsong deliberately parked the car in the emergency lane, carefully inspected the entire bridge with a flashlight, and cleaned up the foreign objects at the water inlet.
In order to be able to accurately know the temperature of key road sections, such as this steel truss bridge, the patrol police on the night shift every day will place thermometers on the bridge in advance and check it every one or two hours, "It is also a way to accurately know the situation of the bridge." ”

There was already some snow on both sides of the bridge, and Yang Shengsong checked the thermometer and said, "Now the temperature has just come down and the snow is getting heavier, so we should pour snowmelt liquid in advance." If you wait until the road is white, it will be too late. If the subsequent situation is aggravated, it is estimated that solid salt will still be applied. ”
When Yang Shengsong returned to the car, there was a layer of snow on his police hat and shoulders.
In about 15 minutes, the operator completed the operation of the snow and ice warning section and drove off the highway.
Yang Shengsong also continued his patrol alone.

Spring Festival encounters snowy days, worry
Yang Shengsong is on the middle shift, from 5 p.m. to 12 midnight, "We are the night shift, the middle shift, and the day shift, and then prepare for duty and rest, five days a round." ”
Yang Shengsong is responsible for about 20 kilometers of high-speed sections including Hangzhou-Pudong Expressway and Shanghai-Hangzhou-Ningbo Expressway, and a round-trip patrol takes about 1 hour, mainly to check whether there are foreign objects on the road and observe the situation on the road. The more we run, the safer the owner. ”
Due to the condition of the car, even if the air conditioning is turned on, the outdoor temperature of -1 to -2 also allows the chill to penetrate into the car.
Tai'an West Interchange, a two-car rear-end collision occurred in the ramp, and the nearby police force should go to the Hangzhou North Toll Station to deal with it. ”
Roger that. In addition to patrolling, dealing with accidents is another major job for Yang Shengsong.
When Yang Shengsong arrived at the Hangzhou North Toll Gate, the snow seemed to be heavier again.

Two accident cars were parked in the traffic accident handling area, and three drivers and passengers were waiting outside the cars. When they saw the police car coming, they came up.
It can be clearly noticed that there are obvious scratches on the left rear side and left front side of the black car, and the left front side is damaged. The trunk of the silver sedan was knocked into a dent, and the rear frame was almost broken.
From the "scars" of the car, Yang Shengsong already had a basic judgment on the accident.

How did the accident happen? Yang Shengsong then asked the two car owners. It is understood that Mr. Chen, the driver of the black car, suddenly skidded and lost control when he drove to the ramp, and after hitting the guardrail, he rear-ended the silver car.
Mr. Cheche advocated the silver car and was still afraid when he thought about it, "I have a strong feeling of pushing my back, and now my waist still hurts a little." ”
After Mr. Zhang's family had dinner after work, they set off for their hometown in Anhui, "I haven't been home for three or four years, so I want to rush back early even if it snows." The lover sat in the passenger seat, and kept reminding him to drive slowly along the way, "We are relatively stable, the navigation shows 7 hours, drive slowly, and rest in the middle, it is estimated that it will take 9 to 10 hours to get home." ”
What I didn't expect was that I was rear-ended. "My family has been asking us until the end of the year, and now I don't dare to tell them about the accident. ”
During the disposal process, Mr. Chen kept saying sorry to Mr. Zhang's family.
The responsibility for the accident is clear, Yang Shengsong recorded the accident in accordance with the procedure, and issued an accident disposal sheet, "Drive slower in the future, especially in this rainy and snowy weather, it is very dangerous." While disposing of it, Yang Shengsong also gave Mr. Chen safety education.
After the disposal was completed, Yang Shengsong suggested that Mr. Zhang call the insurance company** and tow the car away first, "The repair shop is closed during the Chinese New Year, and it is estimated that the car will be repaired after the New Year." ”
Mr. Zhang was also very helpless, so he could only think of another way to go home.

After five years as a police officer, I had to watch fireworks on the highway on Chinese New Year's Eve
At about half past 12 midnight, Yang Shengsong drove off the highway and returned to the brigade station.
At the end of the shift, he was already a little tired.
When you are alone on the road, will you be sleepy? Yang Shengsong said that every 1 hour to 1 and a half hours, he would get out of the car to rest for a while, blowing the cold wind, "I have been used to it for so many years, hold the steering wheel, and immediately feel energetic!" ”
He told some of the situation on the road to his colleague before he was ready to go home to sleep.
At half past eight in the morning on February 7, Yang Shengsong took the turn of the morning shift. I heard from a colleague that everything was normal in the jurisdiction last night, "It seems that all our measures have worked." ”
Between the words, you can hear Yang Shengsong's gratification.
During the patrol, reporter Sheng Rui took a photo.
Yang Shengsong, 39 years old this year, is a native of Zhuji, Shaoxing.
In 2019, he became a high-speed traffic policeman in the sixth brigade, and before that, he spent 11 years in the army, "It is the same in every position, and the most important thing is to do your own thing with due diligence." ”
Yesterday's snow, in Yang Shengsong's impression, should be the second snow in the career of the high-speed traffic police, "The last time should have been the year before last, it was bigger that day, there were many cars slipping, and all colleagues worked overtime until three or four o'clock in the morning." "Many of the current measures have actually been summed up in actual combat again and again.
A few days ago, Yang Shengsong's lover had returned to his hometown in Zhuji with his child.
On Chinese New Year's Eve this year, Yang Shengsong is also in the middle class and needs to spend alone on the highway, "Chinese New Year's Eve dinner is estimated to be unavailable." "Whenever it's the turn of the middle shift, the big guys will pick up two mouthfuls of food at about half past four, pack up their equipment and prepare for work, and don't come down until eleven or twelve o'clock," just watch the fireworks on the road, which is good. ”
