Five Things To Pay Attention To On The Road This Summer

Summer is a carefree entertainment and holiday. But busy roads and extra travel also mean that we should be vigilant on the road.

In recent years, with the changing and unstable period, it is particularly important to pay attention to all possible changes in your route, your car, your driving ability, etc.

If your car is well maintained and you are ready to get off and walk in the driver’s seat, we have provided you with some suggestions! Here are five important things to pay attention to on the road this summer. With vigilance, vigilance and flexibility, your summer will be safe and interesting!

1. More professional drivers

During the period of national blockade and working at home, the number of deliverers transporting food, daily necessities, entertainment supplies on the road increased dramatically.

However, despite recent changes and relaxation of restrictions, online shopping demand remains at an all-time high.

This means that due to the social distance, more deliverers and professional drivers can be met on the road, including the requirements for vehicles not mixed with the general public.

If you want to use a busy route, it may be crowded with professional and non professional drivers, so it is recommended that you set aside extra time in your travel.

2. High tech vehicles

In recent years, a large amount of money has been invested in transportation technology, which has been obviously reflected on the vehicles on the highway. The future of driving is coming!

From more ordinary electric vehicles, hybrid electric vehicles, autonomous vehicle, and vehicles using new safety technologies or renewable fuels, it is very likely to encounter strange vehicles than ever before.

For example, the maximum range of electric vehicles has been increasing.

The goals of new transport technologies almost always emphasize safety, so these new vehicles may help make roads safer in the summer and in the future. However, as technology is still developing, it is particularly important to be cautious and vigilant!

3. General regime

It is expected that the road will have the largest congestion so far in the next few summers. This is because after the national blockade, vacation and “accommodation” increased, and many staff returned to the office.

Take your time and be patient. Expect and plan not to take unnecessary risks on crowded roads, such as leaving the vehicle or rushing to try difficult maneuvers in small spaces.

4. Cyclist

There are several reasons for the increase of cyclists on the road. Better weather usually means that more people choose bicycles and other means of transportation. Many people try to return to a more active lifestyle after being unable to go out during home office or covid-19 blockade.

Environment has also become the main concern of enterprises and individuals. Many people choose more environmentally friendly ways of travel, such as cycling.

Bicyclists may not have designated bicycle lanes that are easier to see and use than drivers, so they may be particularly vulnerable road users. They are also more exposed than drivers when accidents occur or injuries occur.

Watch out for cyclists and motorcyclists this summer. You will help protect yourself and others!

5. Keep social distance

It is expected that some form of social street will be encountered in roads and parking lots this summer. This may include the need to leave a longer distance between vehicles parked in a longer queue, or the situation where only the “drive through” can be collected and the building cannot be entered.

Please pay attention to this possibility and consider carrying relevant sanitary products in the vehicle, such as hand sanitizer, masks and wipes, to avoid inconvenience.

Other tips: Please recognize the changes of roads.

If a period of time elapses between the last drive or a particular route, it may have changed. This may include maintenance and road changes, or even road closures.

As with all the tips above, please be patient and give yourself some time. In particular, keep a higher awareness while going to the airport and other important trips. “Expecting accidents” will help make your summer safe and happy!
