#元年# The introduction word "元" means the beginning, and "Dan" means dawn.

New Year's Day is the first day of the year, also known as the "New Year" and "Gregorian Year".

I have prepared the following content for you, I hope it will be helpful to you.

1. Will the expressway be free on New Year's Day 2022?

Highways are not free on New Year's Day.

Because according to the "Small Passenger Vehicle Toll Exemption Plan for Major Holidays" issued by the Ministry of Transport, the highway toll-free policy is only implemented for four important holidays among the statutory holidays every year.

These four important holidays are Spring Festival, Tomb Sweeping Day, Labor Day, and National Day. Obviously New Year’s Day is not included, so the expressway will not be free on New Year’s Day in 2022.

Many people will have doubts about this, why is the expressway not free on New Year's Day?

There are roughly the following reasons: 1. Reason 1: Expressway is not toll-free on New Year’s Day: It is not within the scope of free policy

Not covered by the free highway policy.

In fact, in recent years, the country's highway revenue has been losing money every year. If highways were made free on every legal holiday, the losses would only be greater.

Moreover, whenever highways are not free during holidays, many people will weigh the pros and cons of driving or taking the high-speed rail to see which one is more cost-effective.

2. The second reason why the expressway is not free on New Year's Day: It is close to the Spring Festival holiday. New Year's Day in 2022 is January 1, and the Spring Festival holiday starts on January 31 (New Year's Eve). The two holidays occur at the same time within one month.

Some people will choose to go home during the Spring Festival but not on New Year’s Day.

Therefore, the country made this decision after weighing the pros and cons. The purpose is to allow more people to enjoy the free highway policy during important holidays.

3. The third reason why expressways are not free on New Year’s Day: the traffic volume on expressways is low. Compared with the Spring Festival and National Day, travel demand on New Year’s Day is not very high.

Because the holidays are relatively short, some people will only choose to travel around or not travel at all. When demand is low, there is no need to implement a toll-free policy on highways.

2. Things to note when traveling on New Year’s Day: 1. Do not brake suddenly or stop on the highway. Cars on the highway are very fast. If they stop suddenly, the vehicle behind them will directly hit them if they cannot dodge. If they hit you at such a high speed,

The car in front will be hit directly. Be sure not to brake suddenly or park illegally!

2. The mental state required when driving. On the highway, every car is driving at a very fast speed, which requires the driver to react much faster than usual. Therefore, the driver must concentrate to prepare for emergencies.

If you feel unable to concentrate, you can choose to stop at the service area of ??the inn and get off the bus to rest, as long as there are no violations.

3. Driving is not for speeding. The saying "nine times out of ten car accidents is speeding" is absolutely true.

However, some driver friends, in order to rush for time, ignore other vehicles on the highway and overtake in various ways, but they do not know that their own life safety is in their own hands. The self-satisfaction of speeding can be imagined at the price paid.

4. Drive in one lane as much as possible and avoid changing lanes frequently. Sometimes you drive in the passing lane and sometimes you drive in the driving lane.

This behavior when driving on the highway is wrong. Do not change lanes frequently, do not drive side by side with other vehicles, do not drive in the overtaking lane for a long time, and do not overtake from the emergency lane, make temporary sudden turns to lane splitting, or apply emergency braking.

wait.

5. Inspect before traveling/check the vehicle condition on time while driving. Before traveling, be sure to check all parts of the vehicle, such as tires, lights, oil, wipers, etc.

Don't feel troublesome. When driving at high speed, you must check the car, especially the tires. If any problems are found, repair them in time. Without good tires, the car will not be able to drive no matter how good it is.

In addition, tire pressure also needs to be monitored at all times. Too low or too high tire pressure will cause safety hazards to the vehicle.

6. If there is a problem with the vehicle, you cannot park it illegally. Whether it is illegal parking or parking in the emergency lane, it is a common phenomenon on the highway, but try not to do this. If it is really an emergency, turn on the double flash warning and at least 150 meters away.

Place warning triangles everywhere.

7. Use lights to remind you when overtaking. If you are planning to remind the vehicle in front of you to overtake during the day, lights are better than horns!

Because if there is louder music playing in the car in front, your speaker prompts may not be heard.

Therefore, light reminders are the best solution.

8. Do not turn around, reverse, or drive in the wrong direction. It is normal to occasionally go the wrong way on the highway, but some drivers think that they can make corrections immediately by backing down, saving time and fuel.

Therefore, taking this wrong method of making a U-turn, driving in reverse or reversing can have serious consequences. If the car driving behind you cannot avoid it in time, it will cause a multi-car collision.
