Fast speed, large inertia and low accident survival rate.
The truck itself is very big, and it carries a lot of goods at work, and the overall weight is quite large. Even if a large truck encounters an emergency on the road, the driver will respond quickly and the truck may not be able to stop in time.
Because everyone knows this fact, car drivers are far away from big trucks. If the car is followed by a big truck, under normal circumstances, the driver will let the big truck drive first, and then follow at a distance, for fear of an accident. If there is an accident and a big truck collides with a car, the survival rate of people on board is obviously lower. For the safety of their own lives, big trucks have always been avoided by drivers.
The collision between these two big trucks in Shandong is even more tragic. Both cars are heavy and fast. In the case of double danger, there is little chance that the driver will survive.
High-risk industries are prone to fatigue driving.
Large trucks usually spend a long time on the road, and it is common to leave for three or four days or a week at a time. Drivers sometimes work overtime in order to finish the delivery task early. Driving for a long time can easily lead to fatigue driving. Even if you are sober, you can drive well on the normal road, but your physical reaction may not keep up.
If vehicles or pedestrians suddenly appear on the road at this time, under normal circumstances, drivers may be able to avoid them smoothly, but drivers who are tired of driving may not be able to react. Even if it is only a second late, it may lead to the end of the car crash.
Time is money, but time is also life.
Some people are puzzled. Why can't big truck drivers have a good rest when they are sleepy and wait until they are full? Because they want to finish this delivery task early and then take over the next one. Big truck drivers earn a good income, and they can make a lot of money by delivering goods once. In order to make more money, drivers are naturally willing to finish their tasks early, get more cars and earn more money.
So many people want to drive for a while before going to bed, but it is precisely because of this idea that accidents are prone to occur. In order to earn more money, it is really not a right choice to put your own life or someone else's life on the line.
First of all, money can never be earned. Secondly, big truck drivers earn a good income. Without special circumstances, their living conditions should be very good. There is no need to risk your life and drive fatigue on the road. Once an accident happens, don't say that no matter how much money you earn, you will die.
Obey traffic rules and reduce accidents.
For large trucks, in addition to the driver's easy fatigue driving, there is also a deep impression that you should be careful of large trucks at intersections.
When people cross the intersection, they just need to look at the traffic lights, because if it is a red light, the driver will stop and let pedestrians and vehicles on another road pass. However, due to frequent traffic accidents, people have learned to observe whether the vehicle stops at the green light.
Because there are always some big trucks that flash by when the signal light is about to turn red, pass by pedestrians or vehicles and leave smartly. Within a second or two after crossing the intersection, large trucks are likely to cause traffic accidents. For the sake of relatives and family, don't argue this time. It's quite cost-effective to exchange two seconds for a person's life.
In a word, driving a big truck is a dangerous thing. You must be careful when driving. Only by putting safety first can we earn more money and live a better life.
