Accidents are everywhere, even those who are careful and careless, will inadvertently live in a critical environment. At this point, regret is no longer effective, and accountability can be pursued afterwards. It is imperative that you flee the vehicle and stay away from danger. Numerous cases have proved that in an emergency, the time for the owner to save himself is not much, and it can take as long as a few minutes, but it can be as long as ten seconds. In a few tens of seconds, it must be completed to escape from the “closet room.” If it succeeds, it will be born, and if it fails, it will die. Here are four types of escape methods, some of which may be well-known to everyone, others that are not so familiar, review together, learn about matters of life and death, and do not do much homework.

Low speed lock, high speed unlock

I believe everyone is not unfamiliar with the “Beijing Guangqumen incident”. In July last year, a young man was turned off due to heavy water on the road. He couldn’t open the door, hit the glass with his head, broke his head, and opened the door. Unfortunately died. The same is still in Guangqumen. On May 4th this year, a man armed with a knife attacked drivers and passengers on some slow-moving vehicles. The driver was injured. This has caused a problem. Is the door locked or unlocked while driving? Electronic car locks are extremely fragile, and flooding, fire, etc., will make them ineffective and trap people in the car. If the vehicle is not locked and is moving slowly, it may encounter the invasion of "outside enemy". There is a compromise: Normally, after starting, some vehicles with speeds over 20km/h will automatically lock out. At this time, the owner must actively unlock the car. As long as the speed does not drop, it will not be locked. Of course, there are children except on the car. Stop and go in the urban areas, traffic lights start again and again, low-speed driving must be kept out of lock status. Under special weather, such as heavy rain and windy weather, the lock must be unlocked even if the city is running at a low speed.

In fact, in Europe, many models do not provide automatic locking. The automotive safety experts explained that in the accident, the unlocking of the vehicle lock can greatly increase the chance of escape for passengers, and any electronic equipment may fail in an accident. So why do many models enter China with an automatic lock-down function? Just because Chinese buyers like it, this is tailored for China!

Escape hammer, choose large!

Recently, the bus fire in Xiamen BRT caused a sensation in the country. In the accident, several passengers seized the escape hammer and smashed the window glass. Unfortunately, it was not broken. On a bus, people can stand and use force, so it is still not possible to break the glass. In a car that is more compact and passengers can only remain seated, the difficulty is only higher. How to pass this test?

First of all, it is advisable to replace the escape hammer with a large size, in order to fit into the driver's door storage compartment, and one of them is pointed. Secondly, when going for maintenance, communicate with 4S shop technical experts and ask where the glass is most vulnerable. Once again, during the free time, you need to perform virtual exercises, take out the escape hammer in the shortest time, adjust to the most prone position in a narrow space, and knock a few times toward the most vulnerable place in the glass. Finally, I had to practice climbing from the half-opened window. Why is it only half? After the glass opens, it will only open a hole, only half the area of ​​the window.

Skylight! Escape preferred

In the Xiamen BRT incident, passengers escaped from the sunroof. In fact, passenger cars are also available. Automobile sunroof can be divided into manual type and electric type according to different driving modes. The former can be directly opened manually without being affected by the circuit. Some electric sunroofs also provide emergency opening and closing functions. The opening method depends on the specifications of specific models. The sunroof opening requires the use of the windowing tools that are provided with the vehicle. This set of tools has different storage locations, some directly behind the sunroof panel and some near the dashboard, depending on the vehicle model.

Skylight escape is most useful when the car enters the water. At this time, the four doors and windows are affected by the water pressure and are extremely difficult to open. The sunroof is not affected by water pressure because the car is still floating on the water. Pay attention to cases of successful escape into the water at home and abroad, and most escaped through skylights. First try to open the electric, electric opening failure, and then use manual, manual failure, then use the escape hammer. Note that the skylight failed to escape and the second choice is still not the window but the tailgate. The weight of a car is mainly concentrated in the front of the car, where there is an engine room. When the vehicle is sunk into the water, it is head down and the tailbox is up. Moreover, due to the large space in the tailgate, it floats on the water for more time, leaving it possible for escape.

Tail, the last life-saving window

In March 2009, three masked kidnappers in Tangshan hijacked a couple and the two victims were imprisoned in the rear compartment by criminals pouring gasoline. Seeing life on the horizon, the victim suddenly remembered how he had learned how to open the tailgate cover from inside the car, so the two escaped from the ropes and managed to escape by opening the car's tailgate under the cover of bumpy road noise.

In the event of an emergency, such as four doors, four windows cannot be opened, do not despair, and there are tailgates. Since its development, most car rear-seats have been able to fold over, and the tailgate can be opened from the inside. However, the entire operation process is cumbersome and many drills must be conducted in advance. The whole family exercises together, it is best to complete 30 seconds. When the tailgate is closed, there may be no light in the car, and standing outside the car feels that everything is so easy. Once in a dark environment, it is not so simple.

Concluding remarks: Learn to sum up eating a meal, grow a wisdom, this is the experience of the ancestors. When you are in a critical situation, you can escape from the broken window, and then gain experience. The risk is too high and life is lost in minutes. As a car owner, you should learn from your past accidents and substitute yourself. Think of yourself as being in that kind of environment. Will you handle it better than the parties? Or worse? There is only one life. Learn to summarize. Only by summing up can we avoid car injuries to the maximum extent possible. Finally, I reminded you of a few commonplace words: If you don’t have a car, you can buy it. If you don’t, you’ll lose everything. Extreme weather, heavy rain, and other extreme weather can’t go out without going out. The car "escaped from the room" and passed the course but hoped that it would not be used for a lifetime.
