How to save self -rescue and mutual rescue of road traffic accidents

In various traffic accidents, road traffic accidents are the most common categories. Any accident is preventable and controlled. If you meet in life and road traffic accidents, how should we save ourselves and mutual rescue?

The number of accidents, many young adults and more injuries are the three characteristics of road traffic accidents. Although my country has taken many measures to prevent traffic accidents and achieve significant results, due to the sharp increase in people and cars, the total number of road traffic accidents has increased, and the proportion of urban road traffic accidents has continued to rise.

Common types of urban road traffic accidents include: collisions on the side of the intersection, rear -end accidents when passing through traffic lights, and vulnerable road users such as motorcycles, bicycles and pedestrians.

The main cause of traffic accidents

The weather is hot, and the driver of the car is prone to fatigue and irritability; the vehicle is prone to mechanical failure, such as bursting tires, fire and burning. It is also prone to extreme weather in summer, floods, mudslides, etc., which are also one of the causes of road traffic accidents.

People are the main factor of inducing road traffic accidents, and the driver's factors are the main constituent of human causes. The Transportation Administration of the Ministry of Public Security conducted a statistical analysis of road traffic accidents involving personnel involving personnel from from January to October 2020, and found that the top ten drivers who caused casualties to cause illegal acts from high to low in order is: Driving, driving, unlicensed driving, unscrupulous safety distance, retrograde, violation of traffic signals, illegal car cars, illegal changes in lanes, illegal overtaking, and illegal reversing.

In addition, fatigue (drowsiness) driving and distracted driving (calling, receiving and receiving SMS and operating on -board electronic equipment, etc.) is also a dangerous driving behavior.

How to avoid risks of mechanical failure

Road traffic accidents caused by mechanical failure such as mechanical failure such as tires and braking failures accounted for relatively low, but because of this, it will make us experience insufficient experience in responding to sudden mechanical failure when driving the vehicle. A major road traffic accident occurred.

In order to avoid tires, tire wear reaches a certain degree or uses the prescribed period of time, and should be replaced in time; check the tire pressure at any time, and the tire pressure should not be too high or too low; avoid overloading, avoid long -term high -speed driving.

After the vehicle bursts, the driving vehicle will have a direction deflection. The driver should keep calm, hold the steering wheel, and gently hit the steering wheel along the offset direction of the vehicle. Tap the brakes to slow down. Rotate, sideways, out of control and rollover.

When the vehicle fails in the highway brake, it can be avoided by rushing slopes and downshifts; if the braking failure in the mountains can be decelerated by friction with the mountain to avoid falling cliffs.

In addition, we must keep an appropriate car distance when driving to avoid rear -end accidents. In particular, some vehicles currently have auxiliary driving devices. Compared with traditional braking methods, the braking distance of these vehicles may be shortened. If the distance with the car is improper, it is particularly prone to rear -end.

In addition, in order to avoid fires in summer, flammable items such as battery, mobile phone and lighter after the vehicle are parked should not be placed in the car.

The correct rescue of the road accident

The scene of road traffic accidents is generally more chaotic, and secondary disasters, such as burning, explosion or secondary collision, can cause injuries to multiple people. At the same time, the vehicle space is narrow, which will affect the injured to escape and rescue the rescue. The highest proportion of traffic injuries is head and lower limbs, followed by upper limbs and body surfaces. At present, more than 50%of the road traffic accidents occur at the scene or delivered to the hospital. The cause of death from to low is craniocerebral injury, chest injury, trauma blood loss and asphyxia.

10 minutes after road traffic accident is a critical time for emergency treatment. At the same degree of injury, effective treatment within 30 minutes, the success rate of treatment is more than 80%; after 90 minutes, the treatment is only about 10%. Therefore, after the accident, the driver and passenger or on -site people should be self -rescue and mutual rescue as soon as possible.

The particularly important self -rescue and mutual rescue measures are to control major bleeding, because major bleeding will soon threaten the lives of wounded people. You can use wounds to directly press the wound, pressurize the wound or bandage or stop baptism to control the extremist bleeding. If the scalp is bleeding, clean items such as gauze and towels can be directly compressed to stop bleeding. If there is blood and cerebrospinal fluid flowing from the nose and ears, the wounded must be lying flat and the wounding side. For example, when the left ear and the nose flow out of the cerebrospinal fluid, the left side is down, and the right side of the right side is flowing down to avoid the return of the cerebrospinal fluid to the back. Do not fill the ears and nose to block the spine. If the throat and nose bleed a lot of bleeding, the respiratory tract may be blocked, and the head should be biased towards one side.

Traffic wounded people may have spinal and spinal cord injuries, and the wrong handling will cause fractures to displace, causing or aggravating spinal cord injury.

When you do n’t know how to rescue the wounded, as long as the injured person does not have a danger of secondary injuries, such as the vehicle fire and burning, chasing and rolling, except for the necessary wounded insulation and hemostasis, do not move the wounded, wait for the arrival of the “120” emergency vehicle. Just accept it. When the wounded must be moved, one person needs to stabilize the head of the injured. Others raised their bodies parallel. Essence When moving with a stretcher, pay special attention to moving steadily. Suspecting that there is a spinal and spinal cord injury, it is strictly forbidden to consign (hold) with both hands and other methods.

Prevent the first no chance

As a prerequisite for safe driving, we must have a qualified driving ability, a healthy physical condition and a good mentality. The accident protection cannot be paralyzed. As a traffic participant, we should not be lucky. We should not only regard traffic safety management regulations, systems and regulations as "swords" to stop illegal and disciplinary, but also protect our own "shields". Active adaptation. In this way, you can prevent drunk driving and actively slow down at the crossroads. When the vehicle is driving, not only the driver and the front passengers should tie the seat belt, but the passengers of the rear row should also take the initiative to tie the seat belt. Safety helmet and so on. During daily driving, the car should be equipped with self -rescue and mutual rescue kit, including calling, alarm, getting off the difficulties, hemostasis, ventilation, fixing and bandaging. In particular, it is pointed out that the self -rescue kit of the vehicle driver and passenger personnel should consider collision safety, and it should be placed in a convenient position to ensure that the accident can be quickly and effective after the accident.

In short, there are tens of millions of roads and the first one.
