Although China's laws and regulations stipulate that new drivers can't get on the expressway alone within 1 year after getting their driver's license, they need to pay attention to safety even if they are accompanied by old drivers. Because new drivers are nervous easily, and driving at high speed is not as experienced as old drivers.

New drivers will be nervous at high speed.

First of all, "novice drivers are more nervous than old drivers on high speed." How do you put this sentence? It tested the brain waves of new drivers and old drivers, and found that the faster the speed, the more nervous the driver. Moreover, under the same road and speed conditions, the increase rate of β wave of novice drivers is about 12% higher than that of old drivers, indicating that new drivers are relatively more nervous.

The nervousness of new drivers will lead to some unreasonable actions when driving: stiff sitting posture, too tight grip on the steering wheel, forgetting to shift gears, turning on the turn signal for no reason and so on. This is like: the final exam, a big exam, so nervous that I know the formula by heart, and suddenly I just can't remember it. I wanted to write this topic, but when I look closely, I have an eraser in my hand, not a pen. This is the case.

The new driver's danger perception ability is not as good as the old driver's.

In addition to being nervous, new drivers are not as experienced as old drivers because of their lack of experience in getting on the highway. An experiment was done in Dr. Tang Zhihui's thesis "Study on the Difference of Danger Perception between New and Old Drivers". It is found that the old drivers with driving experience 10 or above have stronger risk perception ability, which is more than twice that of the new drivers with driving experience less than 4 years.

What does "danger perception" mean? I'm talking about the ability to recognize dangerous situations while driving. "Hey, this car seems to be ... Hey, sure enough!" This is a kind of. The sooner you find the danger, the better your chances of avoiding the accident.

He Ren and Feng Haipeng from the School of Automobile and Traffic Engineering of Jiangsu University have a paper, which is also mentioned in Research and Progress of Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB) Technology. 60% rear-end collision, 40% side collision and 30% head-on collision can be avoided if the driver realizes the collision danger 0.5s in advance and takes braking.

If the driver can realize the collision danger and brake 1 2s in advance, most traffic accidents can be avoided. The vernacular is "brake early". For example, on the expressway, a car enters the main road from the ramp. "Uh" like this, right? Although it is not allowed to change lanes in multiple lanes according to the regulations, there are always unruly drivers, not one by one, but all of them are heads.

The old driver will observe many road sections at this time, pay attention and slow down when necessary; Change lanes to make way if necessary. Friends of novice drivers may not have this experience. This is different from people's reaction ability, but to understand this place, you need to see it and experience it.

Moreover, the speed of high-speed driving is faster than that of urban roads, leaving the driver with shorter reaction time and the severity of the accident is relatively greater. It is even more necessary to have enough danger perception ability, and the new driver's danger perception ability is really insufficient and relatively dangerous.

Novices don't grasp the distance and speed enough, which is easy to cause rear-end collision.

It's not just the danger perception ability just mentioned, it needs accumulation and training. The new driver's friends may have a poor grasp of distance and speed, which is more likely to cause rear-end collision.

Zhang Menghang of Shanghai Jiaotong University has a master's thesis "Research on novice drivers' car-following behavior under different risk levels based on real vehicle simulation". A simulation test was made for the new driver, and it was found that the new driver was not sure enough about the speed change of the vehicle ahead in the middle risk scenario.

It often happens that there is not enough deceleration in the first 250 meters. When it was almost 50 meters, it almost hit, right in front of your eyes. "Oh, soon!" At this time, brake again and take drastic deceleration measures. When high-risk scenes suddenly appear, new drivers often take excessive actions.

I stepped on the brake to the end, slowed down too much, and slammed myself in one direction with a "wow". These behaviors are more likely to cause rear-end accidents, whether chasing others' tails or being rear-ended by others. The most feared thing on the expressway is rear-end collision.

For example, during the May Day holiday some time ago, a 6-car rear-end collision occurred on S 13 of Lianhang Expressway, killing 6 people and injuring 3 others.

Novices are more prone to fatigue driving because of their long distance at high speed.

In addition to the problems you will encounter when driving normally at high speed, new drivers and friends may also reduce their driving ability because of fatigue.

Dr. Dou Guangbo's thesis of Liaoning Normal University is shared with you. Behavior analysis and measurement of drivers' passive fatigue. It says: the driving performance of novice drivers is impaired almost simultaneously with driving fatigue. However, experienced long-distance passenger drivers may have obvious driving performance impairment long after driving fatigue. How come? The older the master is, the less afraid he is of being tired. Or what?

This is because old masters and long-distance drivers use quite rich coping strategies and psychological compensation ability to overcome this part, and novices do not have this thing. Tell people: Although both new drivers and old drivers will be tired and everyone will bear it, there is no difference, but old drivers will use some experience to reduce the impact of fatigue on driving.

Novices are nervous and inexperienced when they get on the expressway.

Generally speaking, novices tend to be nervous when they get on the highway, and they have many shortcomings compared with old drivers in danger perception, distance and speed judgment, and fatigue state.

So novice friends get on the highway, even if they are accompanied by an old driver, don't think, "Hey, I have an old driver to accompany me on the highway." "Hey, I drove today, but I fastened my seat belt and went out. I won't be killed. " If you are not careful, you will still be killed. You should pay special attention to safety.
