For many motorists, taking the highway is undoubtedly a gratifying and challenging experience, indeed, compared to the congested city roads, the highway provides more smooth access conditions for everyone, even if driving on the highway requires speed limit signs still abound, especially in the highway tunnel is strictly forbidden to overtake, speed is also limited. So, what should we do if we encounter a vehicle in front of us moving at a very low speed in a high-speed tunnel? Let's listen to the authoritative answer to this question from the traffic police!
According to the current traffic laws and regulations in our country, the strict prohibition of overtaking system is implemented in the high-speed tunnel, in a small number of acute drivers in order to pursue the speed advantage and violate this provision, in fact, this behavior is often the culprit of traffic accidents, because the light environment inside the high-speed tunnel is relatively dark compared to the outside, the driver's line of sight will be greatly limited, so it is very easy to cause unnecessary traffic accidents.
Even if the speed of the car in front is quite slow, it is better not to risk overtaking, according to statistics, a large number of traffic accidents on the highway every year are caused by overtaking in the tunnel, of course, as a driver following behind, we can still try to remind the vehicle in front of us to pay attention to our driving speed in some way, so as to avoid adversely affecting the normal traffic of other vehicles.
First of all, you can moderate the horn several sounds, so that the driver of the car in front is alert and find that its driving speed is too slow, secondly, if the car in front has not yet reacted accordingly, you can try to use the low beam and high beam lights to flash alternately, so as to prompt the other party to speed up, again, if the above methods are ineffective, you can only keep the distance as much as possible and wait patiently, until you leave the tunnel and then look for the opportunity to overtake, it should be noted that for the longer tunnel, most of them are set up with solid lines and dotted lines, If you find that the vehicle in front of you is too slow and the surrounding conditions are suitable for changing lanes, you can change lanes and continue driving in a timely manner while ensuring safety.
To sum up, the main group of people driving at turtle speed in the tunnel is still novices, in the face of unfamiliar environments and complex traffic conditions, they often appear more cautious, and the driving speed is naturally relatively slow, in addition, sometimes it is not the slow speed of the car in front, it may be that your speed is too fast but you are not aware of the speed limit requirements in the tunnel in time, at this time, you may be judged as illegal driving, causing you unnecessary trouble and deducting points and fines, it is worth noting that There are many traffic accidents caused by slow speed on the highway, and we are urged to strictly follow the speed limit signs on the highway, and it is especially important not to drive slowly in the fast lane to avoid unexpected danger to the car behind.
