Although we have already entered the month of 2024, in the eyes of most Chinese, only after the end of the year, the previous year is considered to be the real end.
And now the Spring Festival is coming soon, and the annual Spring Festival has arrived, and I believe many people have already embarked on the journey home.
However, the Spring Festival transportation is a group activity of hundreds of millions of people at every turn, and it is also once a year, which will also produce huge pressure on China's traffic, especially on some highways where there are usually more cars.
I don't know if you have found a problem, that is, whether we are on the highway or the national highway, the provincial road, or the ordinary roadWill there be a situation where there is no accident on this road, but it is inexplicably stuck in traffic? What's going on?
In the past, although the number of people traveling during the Spring Festival was also very large, most people would choose long-distance buses or green trains when they returned to their hometowns for the Chinese New Year.
Especially the green train, when it comes to the Chinese New Year, I can't wait to pull out the train that has been in the warehouse for decades to carry passengers, there is no way, there are too many people.
As soon as there are many people, it is inevitable that there will be various situations, and the crowding and noise on the train are actually just one side of the green train during the Spring FestivalOn the other hand, so many people huddled in a closed environment for a long time, plus some people eat instant noodles and some smoke in the smoking area, the smell of the whole car is comparable to that of a garbage dump.
Therefore, there will be many people who would rather spend a little more money and choose to take the bus home, and these two modes of transportation were once the mainstream transportation modes during our Spring Festival.
Of course, there are some special circumstances that make some people choose to take a boat home, but this usually only happens between two coastal cities.
With the development of the times, there are more and more modes of transportation for us, especially high-speed rail and airplanes, although ** is more expensive than ordinary trains, but because there is no standing ticket, it is not so crowded.
In addition, the speed is much faster than the green car, so it has also become the choice of some people to go home during the Spring Festival, but relatively speaking, there are fewer people who choose airplanes, after all, the planes during the Spring Festival can be discounted as usual.
Of course, because of the current economic development, many families have their own private cars, so many people will also choose to drive home by themselves.
Compared with taking other means of transportation, the biggest disadvantage of driving by yourself is the congestion on the highway, after all, during the Spring Festival, in addition to the people who drive home, there are many people who choose to travel at this time, even the freight cars on the highway are a lot more than usual.
But many times, although there is a traffic jam on the highway, there is no traffic accident in front of it, but everyone just can't get up.
In fact, this phenomenon is also called "ghost traffic jam", although the name sounds very mysterious, but in fact, the truth is very easy to understand.
Can you imagine what would happen if there were ten people walking in a line right now, and suddenly the first person stopped because they were trying to avoid something.
It is conceivable that if the people behind do not react, then they will definitely hit the people in front, or even cause a whole team of people to crash together.
So under normal circumstances, after the first person pauses, the second person will also pause, and in order to ensure that he does not bump into the person in front of him, he will wait until the person in front of him has already walked again before continuing to walk.
This results in the first person pausing for less than a second, and the second person stopping for more than a second, so that the last person may have gone far away, and he has just started walking.
This road is the same for traffic on the highway, but because you can't stop on the highway, we can change the pause to slow down, and everything else is the same.
If you put it in normal times, maybe this phenomenon will disappear after a while, after all, there are not so many cars on the usual highway, but when it comes to holidays, especially the Spring Festival, this phenomenon is even more obvious.
At present, it is not impossible to solve this phenomenon, first of all, to improve the driving quality of the driver himself and reduce the occurrence of this situation.
The second is to widen the road or increase the number of highways as much as possible, so that the traffic volume will be reduced, and even if this phenomenon occurs, it will not cause "ghost traffic jams".
As for whether there is any solution to the problem after the occurrence of the "ghost traffic jam", it is a pity that because it is a group phenomenon, a solution has not yet been found.
At present, the only way is to wait until those blocked cars are gone, and there will be no more cars stuck here in the future, in fact, it will dissipate by itself after he can't meet the conditions of "ghost traffic jam".
The "ghost traffic jam" during the Spring Festival is actually just the scene after this phenomenon occurs, and there are various reasons for this phenomenon.
For example, many novice drivers are the root cause of many "ghost traffic jams", and no one can avoid them.
Because whether it is in driving school or elsewhere, one of the common sayings used to teach novices to learn to drive is to apply the brakes if something happens.
There is nothing wrong with this on a normal road, after all, your own safety is the most important thing, and braking can avoid most dangerous situations.
But on the highway with a lot of traffic, it is different, the novice driver himself because he has not driven much, he is more sensitive to all conditions on the road, and on the highway is even more sensitive.
In this way, whether you stop after stepping on the brakes, or just reduce the speed a little, it will have a certain impact on the cars behind, especially when there are more vehicles, it is easy to have a "ghost traffic jam".
And not only do they like to apply the brakes while driving, but novice drivers also have a characteristic, that is, they are very slow to do everything on the road.
Other veteran drivers who want to overtake may be solved in five seconds, while a novice driver may not be able to overtake the car for a minute on the highway, which is simply a moving roadblock.
In addition, because there are more people who can afford to buy a car, and the driver's license is not as difficult to get as in the last century, there are more and more novice drivers today.
Although they know that they are not on the highway yet, their families do not think so, so during the Spring Festival, there are also many novice drivers on the highway, which is also an important reason for the "ghost traffic jam".
In addition to being a novice driver, the car itself may also be an important culprit for the "ghost traffic jam" during the Spring Festival.
The reason why the highway is called a highway is not because it can be driven very fast here, but because it cannot be driven too slowly, not only is speeding a violation, but also too slow is a violation.
However, some cars themselves can't drive too fast at all because of the limitations of configuration, among which the "three Japanese mothers" are the most famous.
These three cars are Corolla, Lei Ling and Sylphy, and these cars themselves belong to the kind of cars that are more suitable for novices, not only with small displacement, but also not fast.
In addition, their territory is generally relatively light, so if you drive too fast, there is a feeling of lightness, so you can only drive as slowly as possible.
It's just that this can be a pain for the vehicles behind, even if the old driver is driving these cars, it may be because they can't raise the speed, resulting in a "ghost traffic jam" situation.
There are also many people who will have all kinds of bad habits when driving, such as chatting, talking, and listening to others while driving, which are actually bad habits.
Maybe for old drivers, this is some very ordinary things, and they don't feel that it will affect their driving safety, but this behavior will still have a certain impact on the driving of the vehicle to a greater or lesser extent.
And when driving, you still have to take care of the nearby situation and maintain a good driving habit, such as not changing lanes suddenly, or stepping on the brakes in order to catch a ** and other things.
After all, this will not only affect the driver's own driving state, but also is likely to cause the vehicle behind to occur a "ghost traffic jam".
At that time, the people who caused the traffic jam walked away, but the cars behind were blocked, and it was not unheard of that things that had been blocked for several days at one time.
Don't do to others what you don't want to do to yourself, I believe everyone understands, so when we drive, we still try to concentrate on driving, and if we encounter any problems, we will hand them over to the people around us, even if there is no one around, we must wait until we get to a rest area or something like that.
