Every year until winter, the driver's masters will have a headache. When it comes to snow, it is not only to watch out for ice and snow on the ground, but also to beware of passing vehicles and pedestrians. In the other two years, the number of motorist drivers has increased rapidly. Many novices with no snow and ice driving experience, It is very difficult to drive in snow. Here we have provided some new driver's friends with some precautions in driving in the snow, hoping to provide you with a little help in driving.
After the snow is over, the snow on the windshield, headlights, and mirrors of the car must be removed before starting the car to ensure that the line of sight is not affected while driving. It is best to have a piece of cotton cloth on hand to wipe the mist inside the window and mirrors while parking in the middle of driving, and maintain a good line of sight. If conditions permit, you can apply “rain-resistant†or similar products on the glass to reduce fogging.
Snow-covered roads can make it difficult to start a car. In order to enter the driveway, it is best to move the car forward or backward slightly, or use a snow shovel to clear the snow in front of the car. Lightly step on the throttle after ignition, and do not make the wheel idle, otherwise the wheel will become deeper and deeper.
Always pay attention to the surrounding vehicles and pedestrians while driving, followed by maintaining a sufficient distance from the vehicle ahead. Always prepare for early braking. When you find that the distance to the vehicle ahead is shortened, whatever the reason, you can immediately reduce the speed and reduce the speed. Put your foot on the brake pedal to prepare for braking.
In addition to parking, do not pick up the brakes, whether or not there is no ABS. Hanging the low brake can reduce the speed of the vehicle faster with the deceleration of the engine. For cars without ABS, picking up the brakes can easily cause the tires to lock up. If the front wheels are locked, they will lose control of the direction of travel. The cars will move in the direction of inertia. At that time, there is no use in steering the steering wheel. If the rear wheels are locked, the car It will flick horizontally, and there is no way to control the direction. Of course, even if the brakes are hung, you should not step on the brake pedal when you are not in a sudden situation. You should gradually increase your force.
If the speed is high or need to be braked as soon as possible, you can directly reduce the speed and brake: For example, if the gear is in the 4th gear, release the right foot from the accelerator pedal and then put it on the brake pedal. The left foot quickly steps on the clutch and quickly shifts the gear to 3 In case of emergencies, you can directly change from 4 to 2 or even 1 block, then lift the clutch, clutch the right foot on the brake pedal after the clutch, but do not step on it, if you feel the wheel is locked, immediately release the brake pedal and then step on The intensity is still gradually increasing. Vehicles with ABS can also directly reduce gear, the difference is that when the speed is reduced to a relatively slow time you can step on the clutch (to prevent the engine from annihilation) a foot brake (only when the speed is slow), the rest let ABS Go handle it.
In addition to paying attention to their own driving skills, bad weather should also pay attention to the route. Do not simply stick to the ring, in fact, many main roads and ring roads are not necessarily harder than the main road ring. On the day of snowing and on the second day, some roads near the road to the ring are very open, but the roads are filled with traffic. The choice of these roads will be shorter and safer.
When using the up and down slope, use the low block to pass smoothly and shifting halfway is not appropriate. Uphill anti-extinguishing, downhill absolutely forbidden to coast. Novice snow drive can be changed to follow the road, to avoid the slope of a larger overpass. Try to avoid parking in the snow because it is difficult to restart it. If you must park your car on a downhill slope with snow, make sure that you have enough space to leave the parking space because it is very difficult to move the parking space back and forth.
In addition, when driving in the snow, you should always pay attention to the oil gauge. For long periods of low-speed driving and start-up, the fuel consumption is large. It is necessary to refuel in time to avoid the breakdown of the vehicle and traffic congestion.
