It is headache for driving in the snow,we not only have to be aware of ice and snow, but also be mindful of the passed by vehicles and pedestrians. Many novice who don't have experience driving in the snow are caused great difficulties by the bad weather.So I provide 5 precautions in driving snow as follows:
1:Start
The snow on the windshield, headlamps, mirrors must be removed before launching vehicle, to ensure line of sight is not affected while driving .Best to prepare a piece of cotton cloth so that you can clean the windows and mirrors inside of the car whenever stopping on the way to maintain a good line of sight.Snow-covered roads make it difficult to start the car slightly, in order to smoothly go into the driveway, you'd better let the car move around, or remove the snow in front of the car with a shovel.Lightly tread the accelerator after ignition, do not make the wheels spin, otherwise it will be deeper in the snow.
2. Driving
If the speed is 50 km / h, the braking distance is 12 meters in the dry road, and 50 meters in the snow road. careless operation, prone to accidents.So we must keep in mind of the vehicles and pedestrians and keep enough distance with the front of the vehicle,we should be always ready to brake in advance, when discover the distance with the vehicle in front is shorten, we must immediately slow down and step on the brake pedal ready for braking
3.Braking
Don't pick block brakes whether it with a ABS or not in addition to parking .The low block with the decelerate effect of the engine brake can reduce the speed more quickly.For cars without ABS, picking block can easily lead to tire locking brakes, and if locking the front wheel will lost control of the direction of travel, and move to the inertia. of course.If the speed is higher or need to brake immediatly, you can lower gear directly and brake.
4. Line
In addition to pay attention to your driving skills in inclement weather , you should also select the driving lines.Do not blindly tie to the ring road, in fact, a lot of trunk roads and link roads is not necessarily difficult to walk than the ring road.Snow day and the following days, the loop is on the car-infested,but some roads close to the loop roads are very smooth, choose the path will be more quick and more safe.
5. Uphill and downhill
On the need to use low gear when going through downhill uphill steadily, half-way should not shift.Uphill against extinction, the absolute prohibition of neutral gear and slide when going downhill.Novice can divert away the roads to avoid facing steep overpass.Try to avoid parking on the slope, because it is difficult to make it restart.If you have to park on the snow downhill,please ensure there is enough room left for the parking spaces.
Ten reminding for driving the car in snow
1, Don't rely on ABS, EBD and other high-tech brake system, they only play a supporting role for the braking
2, Be sure to keep your eyes-line clear, no matter how much you are worry about.
3,Whenever parking the vehicle,you should keep the enough distance with the front of the car,especially on the slope.
4, You'd better increase weight of the car, under this circumstances, the braking distance will be shorter.
5, Ensure that there are no snow or ice under your soles when you are driving.
6, Pay attention to lift the wiper blade when the car must be overnight after parking , it can avoid the second day of frost.
7, In the case of snow during the day,remember that the fog lights are turned on.
8, Don't overtake or change lanes when encountered ice or snow Ling road,
9, As far as possible away from the bike to prevent it from slipping
10, Don't force on the brake, excessively loose clutch and refuel to avoid skidding.
