Yangtze Evening News, February 27 (Reporter Guo Yipeng, Correspondent Yin Zhengrong, Li Qian) When driving, suddenly a mobile phone call and WeChat, is it immediately answered and checked immediately? It is important to know that these seemingly casual small movements will cause the eyes and attention to be diverted from the road ahead, ignoring the observation of road conditions and the control of the vehicle, which can lead to traffic accidents.

Recently, near the east line of Sheng'an Avenue in Nanjing, a red sedan was driving normally, but suddenly deviated and crashed into the green belt in the middle of the road, resulting in serious damage to the front of the car. After receiving the report, the Jiangning Traffic Police Squadron immediately went to the scene for disposal. After inquiry, it was learned that the driver Li suddenly sounded in his pocket during the drive, so he held the steering wheel with one hand and wanted to take the mobile phone out of his pocket with the other.

On Yinhu Road in Jiangning, a white sedan suddenly lost control and crashed into the guardrail, but fortunately there were no pedestrians passing by at that time, only the car was damaged and no one was injured. The traffic police of the squadron of the high-tech zone rushed to investigate and learned that when the car drove here, the mobile phone placed in the co-pilot's seat suddenly rang, and the driver reached out to reach it, but his hand slipped, and the direction was out of control and hit the guardrail.

In response to the above two accidents, the traffic police reminded that the driver must maintain a high degree of concentration when driving, and should drive safely and civilly in accordance with the operating specifications, and do not drive distractedly to avoid accidents.
