On night road


Check out on the road - always some risk. He rises at dusk and at night all the more. To the usual dangers added physiological properties of the body. By night a little more active inhibitory processes, fatigue sets in after a day of stress, decreases alertness and reaction time.
Consequently, on the night road from the driver requires maximum attention and special care. It is clear that travel must be properly otdohnuvshim.Nikakogo-will, the dream - forget it!

Virtually the only advantage of an overnight trip - few cars, the road is not loaded and little noise movement. But this should not relax. And statistics show that accidents at night almost half. Maybe an empty track pushes driver to drive faster? Clearly makes clear - in racing we do not participate!
Overnight trip requires special and careful preparation. It is absolutely necessary to test the headlights, turn signals, clean all the windows. Unwashed windshield complicate the already difficult night vision. Yes, and more diffuse light oncoming cars.

Before the trip, the main attention is paid to the lighting device car, clean windows, check the operation of the headlights. Dirty windshield - a source of increased danger, as both difficult to review and scatters light coming from the headlights of cars driving on the wrong side.
Pick up the lighting of the dashboard. Too dim perception complicate the readings, too bright will be an additional source of irritation to the eyes. Switch inside mirror placed in the position for an overnight trip.
Prepared, checked ... can go.
Night Road. Headlights on, just as soon as it started getting dark. You should see all the other road users. Driving with headlights turned off neighbors is dangerous for you and for them.
When you stop the parking lights should remain on, especially if the area is not covered at all expensive or poorly lit. You either have to pull off the road completely, or drive away the car as far as possible to the extreme strip, and be sure to include where appropriate alarm.
What is the most dangerous road in the night? Overall opinion - lack of review. Indeed, often intuitively navigate the traffic situation, because the whole vision - twenty meters headlights illuminated the road. Hence it is clear - the higher the speed, the less accurately you can assess the situation.
Very insidious threat - a threat to dazzle car. If the junction with the oncoming car driver leaves the main beam, thus he shows his incivility and disrespect for others. There is a danger instant blindness. Panacea, unfortunately, from there, you can only advise to look at this point a little to the side, emphasizing attention to the sidelines.
If you notice Failure to disconnect from far distant lights of the car in their relation to it, you can: switch to low beam for 200 meters to the siding, carefully keep your distance to the vehicle ahead and note any defects, irregularities in the road.

Remind this counter on the rules of road etiquette posignalte short bursts beam. If the risk can not be avoided, keeping close to the right side of the road and keep sufficient room for maneuver to the side of the interval to the oncoming traffic.
On the night overtaking. They are more difficult and dangerous than during the day. Overtaking when approaching the car going forward switch to low beam, then check whether to allow overtaking signs and markings, analyze the situation, we verify the safety of the maneuver, turn left turn signal.
 At the time of departure to the next lane speed increases. Continuing, we see that the overtaking vehicle is in sight. Came up to overtake, you can switch to high beam (if the counter-movement) - it will help to better understand the situation on the road. After completing the overtaking return to your lane, activate the right turn signal.
Good reception - to select the track on the night a "leader" - a car that is calm, confident, with a constant speed. And you quietly follow it does not accelerate, just keep your distance. In this case, you will have time to react after it to changing circumstances on the road and on his errors.
