After midnight on February 18, the high-speed toll booth became a busy scene. Drivers who happen to get through the jam point are rejoicing, while those who miss the free slot for various reasons will have to pay a full fee. So, outside the toll booth, drivers who had missed their free time due to traffic jams gathered, parked at the entrance, and got out of their cars to ask for explanations.
Some netizens commented: "Just pay the fee when you arrive, the country has already set regulations, why not leave in advance?" You are responsible for your own problems. As soon as this remark came out, it was approved by many netizens, and some people even compared it to the story of "Shengmien, fighting Mi Hatred". However, with the road conditions posted by netizens, the truth of the matter gradually surfaced.
Most of those car owners who drive on the highway are in order to catch the last train of the free highway. Car owners who fail to pass on time may have a variety of reasons: they thought they had enough time, but they had to pay a high fee because their wife was delayed by going to the toilet. If it's your own mistake, it's understandable, but if you suffer a loss due to others, you will inevitably feel a little unhappy.
The road conditions shared by netizens have sparked widespread discussion. Some believe that these drivers are indeed somewhat wronged; Others believe that since the state has regulations, they should pay on time. Everyone has their own opinion and point of view on this issue.
At a high-speed toll booth in Yujiang, Jiangxi Province, a netizen recorded his thrilling experience of passing through the toll booth at the last minute. **In the middle, the staff of the toll station pinched a reminder on the side, telling the car owner behind that there is still a one-minute countdown, and the normal charge will be charged after the time is over. However, a white car that was passing through the toll booth suddenly turned on the brake light, which made the driver of the rear car, who had plenty of time, impatient and kept chanting: "What is he doing?" And honked the horn to remind the other party to hurry up.
Luckily, the netizen passed the toll booth in the last few seconds, but not all drivers were so lucky. Obviously, the owner of the car behind this netizen was not so lucky. **After the news came out, many netizens blamed the behavior of the driver in front of the car, and some netizens questioned the charging of high-speed toll stations.
This ** makes people think about how we should stay calm and rational on the highway to avoid unnecessary trouble due to impatience. At the same time, for the charging of high-speed toll stations, it is also necessary for relevant departments to strengthen supervision to ensure fair and just charging.
During a high-speed rail journey in Yingtan, Jiangxi Province, a woman accidentally glimpsed a strange traffic jam on the highway outside the window through the window. She immediately took out her phone and recorded the scene. On the highway, the vehicles behind were like a long queue, trapped in place, unable to move. However, it is puzzling that the vehicle at the front seems to be moving freely and unrestrained. This made the woman wonder: "What is the car in front of you doing?" ”
Netizens had a heated discussion about this **. Some people delved into the root causes of traffic jams, pointing out that those drivers who rarely drive on weekdays, only use two tanks of fuel a year, and occupy parking spaces every day, but gather on the highway during the Spring Festival, are the culprits of the congestion. Not only do they occupy scarce parking resources in the city, but they also turn the highway into their "parking lot" during the holidays. What's more, when returning to visit relatives, you may also fall into a ditch due to unfamiliar driving skills. The existence of these drivers has undoubtedly added the hidden danger of traffic jams to the otherwise smooth highway.
Some netizens directly pointed out the source of the traffic jam - once a vehicle adopts the strategy of driving slowly and side by side on the highway, it is like a pebble thrown into a pond, which will trigger a series of chain reactions behind it. This behavior not only blocks the driving route of the rear car, but also makes the phenomenon of "ghost traffic jam" repeatedly staged.
Exploring the controversy and confusion that arose after the end of the free highway pass, it is not difficult to perceive that behind this is actually a reflection of people's differences in understanding of the rules, differences in time management, and differences in ability to respond to unexpected situations. Let's face the fact that the rules are fair, but people's situations vary widely.
The free passage period set by the state is essentially to reduce the financial burden of people returning home during the holiday season. However, the implementation of rules often does not take into account each individual's specific situation in detail, which requires us to plan well in advance and leave enough buffer time to deal with possible contingencies.
However, the reality is often unexpected, such as unexpected situations at home and other factors that cannot be controlled. These sudden changes disrupted the original plan and caused a series of problems. In addition, the phenomenon of "ghost traffic jams" not only exposes problems in traffic management, but also tests the driving literacy of each driver. For example, driving uncertainty due to unfamiliarity with road conditions or fear can be a potential cause of traffic jams.
This series of incidents on the highway is like a mirror, warning us that while enjoying the convenience of technology, we must not ignore the improvement of our own public awareness and responsibility. The observance of rules, the response to emergencies, and the choice of behavior in the public environment are all the scales of social civilization.
Everyone should start from their own perspective and empathize, because today's troubles can become tomorrow's difficulties. This is not only respect for others, but also a contribution to society.
