Every time driving on the road, the family will be a good reminder "to drive a little slower," on the road, also often see "ten times the accident nine fast" prompt. It seems that slowly became a symbol of safety.

However, the traffic control department of accident statistics have found that traffic accidents due to the "turtle speed" caused by traffic but equally accounted for a large proportion. In fact, the highway and some fast sections, turtle speed traffic accidents caused by speeding as much as the number of accidents.

Turtle speed driving hazards

1, causing traffic congestion

The normal running of the road, if the car appeared in front of a turtle speed, depress the forward speed of the whole lane, if there are a few more turtle speed vehicles traveling side by side, would have blocked the entire road, causing traffic jams.

2, increase accidents

Normal vehicles in the face of turtle speed car, usually choose to change lanes to overtake, resulting in a per vehicle turtle speed car in the same lane are required to undergo change lanes - overtaking - return to the original lane of the process, in repeated change lanes to overtake process, the probability of an accident is greatly increased. And the accident is likely to also be affected, including turtle speed car, it is a harm to others, not worth the candle.

3, causing road rage

While we have been pushing to drive the mood to stay calm, but have to admit that there is an objective fact, road rage. In a driver on the most annoying behavior survey, in his car in front of more than turtle speed driving force change lanes, the evening high beam, turn signal does not turn to become the first!

Because the turtle speed traffic caused by vindictive car, do not drive, or even abusive behavior such as fights are common, it can be said, turtle speed car driver has become one of the important causes of road rage.

Who is the favorite turtle speed driving

1, novice drivers

In the period of just a novice on the road, often because they do not familiar with the driving environment, and unskilled driving techniques, leading to intense fear, so choose the turtle speed driving. Here, I suggest that novice drivers, looking at the road when driving or professional accompany the veteran driver with the area, in practice a lot less trafficked roads, road conditions, etc. Once you are familiar condition and in a separate driven on the road, avoid driving at turtle speed occur.

2, believe in driving slower and safer driver

Many turtle speed car drivers will be slower and security painted on the equal sign, in fact, in compliance with traffic rules, do not exceed the maximum speed limit is safe driving behavior. If the speed is too slow, actually may be dangerous. For example, on the highway, causing miscarriage of justice in accordance with the high-speed driving the speed limit in front of the car will slow, resulting in more serious rear-end collision accident. So I'm suggesting we should maintain a reasonable speed driving, the fast is fast, the slow is slow.

3, car phone, play phone

In addition to the above two cases, the most common cause of turtle-speed driving is actually caused by driver distraction. I believe that after many drivers have encountered such a situation, can not stand the turtle speed car change lanes to overtake accelerated, turned to look at turtle speed car drivers are leisurely leisurely chat call micro-channel, it is an anger directly on the heart. In fact this approach is not only in violation of traffic rules, will be more themselves and others at risk, the driver called the low quality of this is not too much.

How to maintain the correct speed

1, the highway speed limit shall not be less than the minimum

Not only limits the maximum highway speed, also defines the minimum speed of each lane.

Usually there are two lanes in the same direction, the minimum speed of the left lane of 100 km/h, the right lane is the minimum speed of 60 km/h;

Same direction three or more lanes, the minimum speed of the far left lane of 110 km/h, the middle lane minimum speed is 90 km/h, the right lane is the minimum speed of 60 km/h.

When there is no accident or traffic jam ahead, traveling in the corresponding lane must let the speed is not less than the minimum speed limit, should not be penalized or fined in accordance with the Traffic Safety Act do not follow the prescribed speed limit, will increase the accident risk.

2, urban roads to maintain speed according to the speed limit and traffic

Urban roads are often only provides for the maximum speed limit, no minimum speed limit, but that does not mean you can travel turtle speed. In fact, without exceeding the maximum speed limit, the safest way is to "go with the flow", consistent, not only with the speed of the overall traffic flow more efficient, but also for the state of the vehicle is also good. You know, but long-term low-speed driving engine deposits, increased fuel consumption, reducing catalytic lifetime of the important reasons.

3, other road traffic safety law with reference

In addition to high-speed trunk roads and cities, there are many rural roads and urban sub-branch, these roads are often no clear speed limit signs, then you should refer to the provisions of traffic safety regulations to control the speed.

No road centerline of roads, urban roads is 30 kilometers per hour, the highway is 40 kilometers per hour;

Only one road in the same direction of the motor vehicle lanes, urban roads is 50 kilometers per hour, the highway is 70 kilometers per hour.

Finally, I remind you, fast speed and is not directly related to the accident. They do not exceed the maximum speed limit can be regarded as a safe speed, especially on the highway, according to the upper limit of the maximum speed limit of the car but will be more secure. In the city the best way to follow the traffic speeds, and can reduce unnecessary line to overtake and improve traffic safety.
