The traffic police directed the vehicle to make way for the fire engine behind him.
In the past two days, the "45-degree way" has suddenly been screened on major social platforms, and many people have defined it as "the necessary skills for driving in 2020".
In an animated simulation video, a three-lane road is congested, and there is an ambulance behind it that sounds the alarm and needs to urgently transport the patient forward. In order to let the ambulance pass through the congested road section as soon as possible, all vehicles turned sideways at a 45-degree angle to their left and right, which made a narrow "life passage" for the ambulance.
Is it really feasible to brush the screen with a 45-degree way? What if I press it to the solid line? The reporter learned from the traffic police and the fire and emergency departments that this law is not only feasible, but also has been staged in Hangzhou more than once.
Is it feasible to give way at 45 degrees? The traffic police said: feasible
Will it be deducted if it is pressed to the solid line? The traffic police said: No.
The relevant person in charge of the traffic police department said that everyone is obliged to give way when they drive on the road and encounter an alarm from an emergency vehicle (such as an ambulance, a fire truck, a police car, etc.) performing a task behind them. At present, there is no authoritative statement on how to give way, and drivers can operate according to the actual situation. "For example, on an elevated or expressway, if there is a road queue congestion and there is an emergency vehicle in the rear, everyone should try to lean to the sides and give way in the middle while ensuring safety ‘ Life channel ’ Come. "
Therefore, the "45-degree way" is feasible in theory, but in practice, all vehicles need to cooperate with Qi Xin. "There are not only cars on the road, but also large trucks and buses with different lengths. In addition, if the vehicles are not well coordinated or the driver’s own operation is wrong, other scraping accidents may occur during the road."
A driver asked: "If you press into a solid line or run a red light because you make way for an emergency vehicle, will you be deducted?"
The traffic police said: In an emergency, life is the priority. "If you make way for emergency vehicles such as ambulances, fire engines and police cars in the case of congestion on expressways and elevated roads, you will not be penalized if you can prove it."
In the morning rush hour, the fire alarm was blocked.
The traffic police directed the private car to stage a textbook concession.
In Hangzhou, a textbook-level "45 degrees out of the way" was recently staged.
It happened on the 23rd of last month, when the squadron of Yuhang Town, Hangzhou received the dispatch — — On the east-west avenue of Yuhang Street, a spontaneous combustion accident of a new energy electric vehicle occurred on the roadside less than Wen ‘er West Road. After receiving the alarm, Yuhang Town Squadron dispatched two cars and 14 people to the scene for disposal.
It was the morning rush hour, and the road leading to the scene of the incident was very congested. Especially in places less than 500 meters away from the scene of the incident, the traffic volume was so great that the fire truck could not travel smoothly. Looking at the black smoke from the scene not far away, the firefighters on the fire truck were extremely anxious.
Just then, some vehicles in the traffic began to lean on both sides of the road to make way for the fire truck. A traffic policeman also arrived in time to direct the vehicles to move to both sides to clear the road for the fire truck. With the cooperation of the traffic police command and the on-site car drivers, the fire truck finally arrived at the scene smoothly and put out the fire in time.
In order to get praise from drivers, the fire department urged drivers and friends, such as Lu Yu fire engines, ambulances, police cars and other special vehicles that are performing emergency tasks, to let them go first and make way for their lives on the premise of ensuring safety.
Ambulance driver:
The front of the front car is biased, and the rear car will follow the example of Qi Xin and work together to make way for life.
After a night of tossing, at 8 o’clock yesterday morning, 46-year-old Shen Huigang finally got off work with a tired body.
He is the driver of the first-aid point of the First People’s Hospital of Hangzhou. His main job at ordinary times is to drive an ambulance, and he will assist the doctor when he meets a critical patient. He has been driving here since the first aid point was set up in 2009. Previously, he had driven a bus and worked as a car attendant … … In short, he has dealt with all kinds of cars. When he applied that year, he was the only Vivi who stood out from more than 300 people.
Master Shen’s night shift is from 6 pm the previous day to 8 am the next day. Last night and this morning, he drove seven times, which was a small number, and there were more than 10 times when there were many. On the Internet, Master Shen also noticed the "45-degree giving way method". As a witness, Master Shen is still very emotional — —
"To tell the truth, there is still a big difference between driving an ambulance and other cars. When encountering critically ill patients, the requirements for our drivers are fast and stable, and we have to have a map in our hearts, including many small streets and alleys, just to save time and cost. " Master Shen said.
As for the "45-degree way", Master Shen thought it was completely operable, and he also encountered it. "At 50 meters in front of the ambulance, a car heard the sound, and the front of the car was biased, which was not so accurate as 45 degrees, but it was done. The next few cars will follow suit, and we can pass more smoothly. This requires the concerted efforts of all of us, Qi Xin, and we all have such awareness. To be honest, cars that grab the driveway also exist, and we are very helpless. " Master Shen said that the Zhonghe Elevated Road and Times Elevated Road, which they often pass, are the most prone to congestion. As long as they are not blocked and can pass slowly, they can operate the 45-degree way.
Driving on the road, Master Shen personally felt the change — — In recent years, everyone’s quality has gradually improved. When they see an ambulance, more and more drivers take the initiative to give way. "For example, on the viaduct, many cars will slow down when they hear the ambulance. Our vehicles can also take the middle lane, and there are many such news in the media. I think that no matter who sees an ambulance or hears its sound, they should have a sense of giving way, and pull over or stop. We are transporting emergency patients. After all, it is a life channel to save people! "
Article 53 of the Road Traffic Safety Law:
Police cars, fire engines, ambulances and engineering rescue vehicles can use alarms and sign lamps when performing emergency tasks; On the premise of ensuring safety, other vehicles and pedestrians should give way without being restricted by driving route, driving direction, driving speed and traffic lights.
Paragraph 3 of Article 21 of the Procedures for Handling Illegal Acts of Road Traffic Safety:
If there is evidence in the illegal behavior information recorded by traffic technology monitoring equipment or entered into the road traffic illegal information management system that it is caused by rescue or emergency avoidance, it shall be eliminated. If the penalty notice is finally received, the owner can appeal to the traffic police department, which will give priority to verification and write it off at the first time.
