Which line in China has the highest accident rate?

The problem of traffic accidents in China is very serious. The number of deaths caused by road traffic injuries in China ranks first in the world every year, and it is increasing at the rate of 10% every year. According to the statistical analysis of national road traffic accidents in 2005 notified by the Ministry of Public Security, there were 450,254 road traffic accidents last year. Causing 98,738 deaths; 4699 1 1 people were injured; The direct property loss was 654.38+88 million yuan. Among them, the expressway is the most vicious killer, which not only causes frequent accidents, but also has serious circumstances and consequences. Incredibly, there are only a few sections of the national expressway, which is particularly prone to traffic accidents. They are called "fatal sections", which makes many drivers passing through the area creepy. No matter whether the "deadly zone" is caused by man-made or fate, this issue of driving is still revealing the top ten deadly zones in the country for you. You must be careful when you pass there.

"The Line of Death"-National Highway 3 18 Sichuan-Tibet Line

The total length of Sichuan-Tibet Highway is 3 176 km, which crosses 2 1 snow-capped mountains over 4,000 meters and crosses 14 rivers. It is called "the most dangerous highway in the world" by Chinese and foreign geographers. This most dangerous highway, from Lhasa to Chengdu, is more than 2000 kilometers long. At the beginning, in order to repair this 2000-kilometer road, more than 3000 young lives fell, which means that one and a half lives were paid per kilometer on average. This is the heaviest sacrifice in the history of road construction in the world.

Reason:

1. Mountain reaction. The Sichuan-Tibet line starts from Chengdu, Sichuan Basin, and its altitude gradually rises to the west. Although there are many mountains above 4000 meters above sea level, lack of oxygen may bring many problems, especially for drivers who are new here.

2. There are many landslides along the Sichuan-Tibet line, and general mudslides and landslides occur in several sections.

"Terrible Bermuda" —— Huanghua Bridge Section of National Highway 320

Huanghua Bridge Section of National Highway 320 is located in xiangdong district, Pingxiang City, Jiangxi Province, with a length of less than 1 km. According to the sampling survey of traffic accidents from July 2002 to July 2003, the number of traffic accidents at Huanghuaqiao Road only accounted for 1 1% of the whole area in eastern Hunan, and the death toll even accounted for 3 1.58% of the total. Since the opening of Huanghua Bridge 1992, there have been more than 400 traffic accidents within 1 km, with 92 deaths and 443 injuries, resulting in direct economic losses of more than 6 million yuan. In 2003, this road was listed as one of the 29 dangerous sections in China by the Ministry of Public Security and the State Administration of Work Safety, and the local people even called it "the horrible Bermuda". This is also the only highway in the province that is listed as a dangerous section of the national highway.

Reason:

1. Due to overload and overspeed, vehicles tend to lose their balance and lose their direction when going downhill in curves.

2. The road design is unreasonable. According to the national regulations, the minimum bend radius of the secondary highway is 250m, and the sight distance is 1 10m. However, the curve radius of Huanghua Bridge is only 2 16 meters, and the sight distance is 84 meters, which is far below the design standard of national secondary roads. In this way, when vehicles drive here, traffic accidents often occur because of insufficient turning radius and sight distance.

"5 kilometers of death"-Badaling Expressway

Badaling Expressway is a part of the national highway 1 10 from Beijing to Zhangjiakou, with a total length of 82 kilometers, but serious traffic accidents are strangely concentrated in a short section of 5 kilometers. Whether it's the accident cases posted on roadside publicity windows or the warning cards that drivers will receive in the past, it adds a bit of horror to this only mountain expressway in Beijing. From 1998 10 to September 2003, there were 32 serious traffic accidents, resulting in 62 injuries and 49 deaths. Just 5 kilometers, with an average death per kilometer 10 people. Therefore, this section is called the "Death Valley" in Beijing.

Reason:

1. During the day, the traffic of trucks in Beijing is restricted, and trucks entering Beijing concentrate on driving in the middle of the night. Because the driving sight is not clear at night, drivers are often tired of driving because of long-distance transportation, which greatly increases the risk of accidents. The only mountain expressway in Beijing is likely to be a "death trap" for foreign drivers who are not familiar with complex road conditions.

2. One-third of Badaling Expressway is built on the mountain. Once the speed is too fast in mountainous areas, large trucks will easily get out of control. Therefore, unlike the general highway speed limit 1 10 km, the speed limit of this accident-prone area is 40 km for big cars and 60 km for small cars, but many drivers have not done so.

"Valley of Death"-National Highway 2 13 from Dujiangyan to Yingxiu, Sichuan

As soon as the car entered the national highway 2 13, the eye-catching sign on the roadside "Traffic Management Special Control Zone" reminded: "Overloading, speeding and illegal overtaking are strictly prohibited, and the speed limit is 40 kilometers per hour!" The road is very narrow, with only two lanes, and both are mountain roads, with steep mountains on one side and rolling Minjiang River on the other. Because this section is the only way to Aba Prefecture, the traffic volume is very large, and there are many large trucks and trucks. Huge trucks are driving fast on the highway, and every time they overtake, they are very nervous and dangerous. And as long as a car has an accident, it is easy to cause traffic jams.

Reason:

1. Dujiangyan to Yingxiu is ***33 kilometers, but because all cars entering Aba Prefecture have to pass this road, the traffic volume is very large, reaching more than 10000 vehicles every day. Over time, traffic bottlenecks have formed here, and the pressure is very great.

2. Poor road conditions, many broken cars and incomplete safety facilities.

3. speeding. There are many cars and curves in this section, and there are no necessary safety facilities such as fences on both sides of the road, which makes people uneasy to drive.

"The Road to Death"-Beijing-Tianjin-Tangshan Expressway

From the opening of the Beijing section of the Beijing-Tianjin-Tangshan Expressway with a total length of 38.5 kilometers to the end of last year, there were 4,320 traffic accidents in * * *, with injuries 1072 and deaths of 2 19. Among them, during the nine years from 199 1 to 1999, there were traffic accidents in Beijing section of Jingjintang 198 1, with 554 people injured and15 dead. During the four years from 2000 to 2003, there were traffic accidents 1592, with 359 people injured and 77 people killed, with an average of 89 people injured and 0/9 people killed each year. From June 1 day to June 1 day, 2004, there were 747 traffic accidents in Beijing section of Beijing-Tianjin-Tangshan Expressway, with injuries 159 and 27 deaths. In the face of shocking traffic accidents and accidents that claimed 2 19 lives, drivers who often take the Beijing-Tianjin-Tangshan Expressway call this road "the road to death" with lingering fear.

Reason: Due to outdated design and overload operation, the traffic volume is three times that of the design, and there is no parking harbor on the foggy road section. The Beijing-Tianjin-Tanggu Expressway, which was opened at 13, was dubbed "the road to death" by drivers.

"Black Truck" —— The Route of Beijing-Zhuhai Expressway in Northern Guangdong

Known as "the most challenging expressway project in China", the northern Guangdong section of Beijing-Zhuhai Expressway (Beijing-Zhuhai North) has the longest mileage and the most difficult construction in China. As an important part of the national traffic artery, Beijing-Zhuhai North has a total length of 109.93 km. Since it was completed and opened to traffic in April 2003, it only takes more than seven hours from Guangzhou to Changsha, Hunan, which greatly facilitates the traffic in South China. However, due to the serious overload of a large number of trucks, drivers' safety awareness is weak, the slope of road sections is long, and traffic accidents occur frequently. Today in March, there was a serious traffic accident in which 13 cars collided in a chain.

Cause: 1. 90% of the large trucks from Beijing to Zhuhai to Guangdong are seriously overloaded, and the load capacity of these trucks is generally 2-4 times of the nuclear tonnage. The load capacity of some large trucks is even equivalent to the load capacity of a train carriage (60 tons), so people call these large trucks "road trains" vividly. When these heavy vehicles pass through the Beijing-Zhuhai north long slope section, the inertia impulse increases due to the center of gravity, and they are prone to overheating and rear-end collision if they brake for too long.

2. The expressway runs through the mountainous area of northern Guangdong, and the temperature in winter is below zero degrees Celsius. Many overloaded trucks often spray water on the tires to cool down, making the road slippery, in order to prevent the brakes from failing due to heat weakness.

3. The climate of Beijing-Zhuhai North Road is changeable. About 25 kilometers in the middle of the whole line is a foggy area all the year round, and 80% of the days are wet and foggy.

Devil's U-bend-Taike Highway

Taiyuan-Ningwu Highway was rebuilt to 1997, and later renamed Taijia Highway. At 3 1k+700 meters of this highway, there is a sharp and steep U-shaped bend. For passing vehicles, it is as terrible as Bermuda's black triangle. From June 1997 to now, almost every week, a car has an accident on this black "U" curve. In addition to these fatal accidents, an average car will have different degrees of traffic accidents every week on the black "U" curve.

Reason: This bend is a steep slope with a small diameter and a large longitudinal gradient. Generally, the bend should be high outside and low inside, but it is just the opposite here, so the centrifugal force is often greater than the centripetal force when the vehicle passes here, which is easy to cause rollover. In addition, this is the last turn from Taiyuan to Gujiao. After the downhill road ahead, the driver's spirit is easily exhausted and his attention is easily distracted. What's more, the braking devices of some vehicles have been worn very hot by the previous downhill, and the braking performance of vehicles is weakening. Drivers who are unfamiliar with road conditions suddenly find this unimaginable bend and then step on the brakes urgently, which is prone to brake failure and can only slam the direction. But in this way, if the direction is killed, the vehicle will easily overturn under the action of great inertia; If you can't hit the direction, you may rush down the hillside, and the car will be destroyed.

"Dead Zone"-Jitu Highway

Jitu Highway is 43.5 kilometers long and is called "dead zone" by drivers.

Reason: 40.5km to 43.5km is continuous downhill, with many sharp bends, many bends and poor line of sight, especially the turning curve of the 43.5km section turns back more than 90 degrees to the left. When driving to this section at night, it takes 33 kilometers after a sharp bend and steep slope. There is a smooth and straight road in front of you. There are no traffic signs on the road, and the lights ahead are bright. You will mistakenly think that the pear tree area is ahead, so you will speed up, but when you reach 44.5 kilometers, you will make a sharp turn. It is too late to brake and turn at this time, which will cause a rollover accident. According to statistics, 1 0,000% of the overturned vehicles in this section are foreign vehicles or overloaded vehicles whose drivers come to Jixi for the first time. At that time, the alignment of this section of highway was only suitable for small vehicles and medium-sized heavy vehicles, which could not meet the requirements of safe driving of large vehicles. With the rapid increase of large and long heavy vehicles, it has become a road section prone to traffic accidents.

"The Slope of Death"-Luohan Cave Slope

The reconstruction and expansion project of Luohan Dongpo of National Highway 3 10 (Baoji, Shaanxi to Tianshui, Gansu) started in September 1998. From the completion of 10 in June 2000 to the end of 2003, in a short period of 15 months, there were 83 traffic accidents with 32 casualties.

Cause: Less than three months after the section was opened to traffic, "hundreds of roadbed collapsed in a large area" occurred. At the corner of the road, a crack of more than 10 meters is very eye-catching. The widest part of the crack is more than 20 centimeters, and many roadside ditches are damaged.

Terrible "B" —— National Highway 308 in Xinhe County, Hebei Province

The 572-573 km section of National Highway 308 in Xinhe, Hebei Province is a national traffic black spot, which is vividly called "the road to death" by drivers. The highest number of accidents here is five a day, and there are 32 accidents in a year and a half.

Cause of formation: there are several continuous sharp bends in this section, which are distributed in a "B" shape. It is this peculiar route that leads to frequent car accidents, large and small, and countless deaths and injuries. Some people think that from east to west, there is a long straight road 572km+445m in front of that sharp turn, and there is a crop field on the right side of the road. If it is summer and autumn, the tall and dense corn stalks affect the driver's sight, and it is difficult to see the sharp turn ahead when driving.
