A driver in Zhejiang lost control of speeding downhill and crashed into five cars. How to drive safely when going downhill?

With the development of social economy, people's living standards are getting higher and higher. Cars have generally entered the homes of ordinary people and become an essential tool for people's daily transportation. The following driving safety problem is an important problem that we can't ignore.

Recently, when a white Trass car got off the bridge in Shaoxing, Zhejiang Province, it suddenly lost control and crashed into a car on the side of the road. Later, after investigation, it was found that the cause of the accident was that the driver was speeding downhill, which caused the vehicle to lose control and failed to brake in time. In the end, the driver took full responsibility for the accident because he didn't drive safely according to the regulations.

Paying attention to driving cars downhill safely has become our means of transportation, which provides convenience for our lives, but safe driving is an important issue that we can't ignore. As the saying goes, uphill is easier than downhill, so is driving. Driving downhill is actually the most difficult and the most prone to accidents. Due to the inertia force of the car, it is more difficult to drive downhill than uphill. How to drive safely when driving downhill? First of all, slow down the car before going downhill, so that the vehicle can enter the downhill at a slower speed. It must be remembered that neutral taxiing is absolutely forbidden on downhill sections, so it is necessary to engage in a suitable gear and use the engine's containment function to reduce the taxiing speed of the vehicle. You must use the brakes carefully when going downhill. Before going downhill, check whether the braking performance is good. If there is a fault, it should be checked out before going downhill. When going downhill, you can use the automatic function intermittently to reduce the downhill speed, but try to avoid using emergency braking. When driving downhill, the distance between cars should not be too close, because every car has its inertia, so it is necessary to appropriately increase the distance between cars to prevent vehicles from colliding due to large inertia and high speed.

In short, you must pay attention to the speed when driving, especially on downhill sections. You should drive slowly, slide without neutral, brake suddenly and hit the direction sharply to protect your driving safety. Safety first, I hope every driver can be vigilant and travel safely.
