These self-help measures are very effective in times of danger

Truck drivers must check that the basic performance of the vehicle is in good condition before driving

1. Body appearance inspection, bumpers, rearview mirrors, door and window glass and other components need to be intact, the carriage of the trailer should be firm, and the rails and bottom plates should meet the requirements for use.

Whether the external lighting and signal setting functions are normal, and whether the far and near lights are normal.

Whether the tire is installed properly, the tire surface should not have defects, abnormal wear and deformation that affect the use.

Is the brake system sensitive?

Whether functional necessities such as engine oil meet the vehicle's own needs.

2. During the driving process, you must abide by the correct road driving regulations, abide by the traffic rules, drive on the prescribed road, and control the distance between vehicles. In the case of changing lanes instead of overtaking, turn on the turn signals in advance, reduce the speed, and complete the lane change. Pedestrians and non-motorized vehicles should be avoided in time to avoid a series of unnecessary injuries and losses.

3. If you are in danger, if you can avoid it, you must first calm down, hold the steering wheel with both hands, keep your back close to the seat, reduce the speed, slow down slowly, and turn on the hazard lights, without affecting the driving of other vehicles. Stop by the curb or drive on the emergency stop.

4. If you encounter danger, the special situation cannot be avoided, first of all, it is necessary to ensure that casualties are minimized, do not arbitrarily turn the steering wheel, and turn the steering wheel to the side with no personnel or less damage under controllable conditions.

5. Remember not to slide in neutral while driving. If you encounter brake failure, do not use the handbrake urgently. Use the gear to brake and decelerate, and change from high gear to low gear in turn. Do not directly downgrade from high gear to low gear, overspeed to slow down, too fast speed will cause the vehicle to roll over or roll forward, causing more serious casualties, and also more serious damage to motor vehicle engines, gearboxes, etc. bring unnecessary losses.

6. A good body is the capital of revolution. Truck drivers must pay attention to coordinating rest time, and remember not to drive fatigued.
