If you must go to the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau once in your life, it must be in late autumn when the forests are all dyed. The Qinghai-Tibet Plateau in late autumn is really charming, its beauty is pure and clear, quiet and far-reaching. Especially Qinghai Lake in autumn, with gem-like blue water waves, like the eyes of the earth, gazing at the sky. For every self-driving enthusiast, being able to gallop on the golden pastures, along the snow-capped mountains and winding roads, and enjoy the deserted open space with the running antelopes is the best thing in my heart. look forward to. However, while self-drivers are indulging in the beauty of the plateau, accidents and risks are also quietly hidden around them.
The average altitude of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau is above 4,000 meters. It is already covered with snow and ice in late autumn, and dark ice is prone to occur. Affected by the ice and snow weather, the braking distance of the vehicle becomes longer and it is easy to skid, which brings many disadvantages to driving in plateau areas. According to the data from the Road Safety Research Center of the Ministry of Public Security, the probability of accidents in icy and snowy weather is three times higher than usual. Especially under the same vehicle conditions, when the speed is 30km/h, the braking distance on icy and snowy roads is 8 times that of dry roads.
In order to ensure safe travel, safe driving tips in plateau areas under ice and snow weather are essential, and every self-driver should be fully prepared.
· First of all, you should check the vehicle before traveling, clear the snow and ice on the windshield and the car body, especially check whether the air pressure of the tires meets the standard.
· When driving, pay attention to keep the vehicle speed stable, increase the distance between vehicles, and control the speed per hour.
· When starting and accelerating, be gentle and not too violent to prevent tires from slipping or skidding; in case of skidding, keep calm, hold the steering wheel with both hands, and keep driving in a straight line and at a low speed.
· Do not brake suddenly on icy or snowy roads. When turning, slow down first and turn slowly.
· Use durable snow and ice-specific tires.
Bridgestone ice and snow tires – Bingruike series uses a breakthrough foam rubber technology. After the foam rubber absorbs water, the tire can be closely attached to the icy road surface, so that the tire has more grip and increases the safety of the icy road; After pressing, it deforms and presses out a larger snow column to provide a stronger driving force for the tire; at the same time, the foam rubber technology can keep the tire soft and elastic after long-term wear, with stable performance and long-lasting effect.
Based on the previous products, Bingruike XG02 adopts a new optimized slit pattern, which effectively improves the performance on icy roads, and simultaneously greatly improves the braking performance on icy roads and wet roads of tires: compared with the previous generation product XG01, The braking distance on icy roads is shortened by 10%, and the braking distance on wet roads is shortened by 7%. At the same time, the service life is extended by 10%, allowing drivers to enjoy lasting and stable safety care.
(The above data is based on Bridgestone’s internal test, the new product XG02 is under the same test conditions/environment as the current product XG01, and the results are obtained)
