　　Go on road trip is a popular choice for tourism, however, because its destination is often remote, it adds risks to the journey. Therefore, in the process of go on road trip, tourists should always put safety first, listen to the safety advice of professionals, make full preparations before leaving, and prepare emergency tools.

　　In addition, relevant departments should also create a safe self-driving environment and build an emergency response mechanism. With the concerted efforts of many parties, go on road trip tourists can enjoy their travel and ensure their own safety.

　　Hold the steering wheel and go all the way forward. The scenery on both sides is constantly retrogressing, with steep and magnificent mountains and clear water flowing gently … … With the arrival of summer vacation, go on road trip is heating up all over the country, reflecting tourists’ expectation of independent tourism, personalized tourism and in-depth tourism.

　　However, some areas visited by tourists in go on road trip are sparsely populated and lack of supporting public facilities, so there are many potential safety hazards that cannot be ignored.

　　Go on road trip got talent

　　Be fully prepared and travel cautiously.

　　Chang Junwei is a well-known talent in go on road trip, Xinjiang. He has been driving for more than ten years and can drive nearly 30,000 kilometers every year. Because of his rich experience, he also took the lead in setting up a go on road trip motorcade.

　　Recalling what happened not long ago, Chang Junwei still has a lingering fear. At the beginning of the summer vacation, he set off with his motorcade as soon as the Duku Highway, which had been closed for seven months, was opened to traffic.

　　Duku Highway is the signboard of self-driving tourist routes in Xinjiang. However, 1/3 of this highway is a cliff, and 1/5 of it is in the alpine permafrost, which needs to cross nearly 10 major rivers in Tianshan Mountain. At the same time, it also has the only snow-proof corridor in the world and the highest altitude highway tunnel in Hashel.

　　"This Tianshan road is full of scenery along the way, but it is not easy to walk." That day, although he repeatedly reminded his teammates to drive carefully, he still had an accident. Just out of Gendaban Highway Tunnel in Hashel, the driver of No.5 car in the motorcade was not careful, and the car fell into a snow ditch.

　　Fortunately, the driver who followed quickly responded quickly, stopped the car in time, turned on the double flash, set up the triangle warning sign, and contacted the leader Chang Junwei and the first car through the walkie-talkie. Two people wearing bright-colored clothes near the warning sign remind the vehicles behind to avoid the road.

　　The car got stuck in the snow ditch and the wheels slipped, so it couldn’t be poured out. Gendaban, Hashel, is the highest point in the northern section of Duku Highway, with sharp bends and steep slopes. If vehicles get stuck here, it will be very difficult to rescue and the consequences will be unimaginable.

　　"Fortunately, I am experienced in driving and well prepared." Chang Junwei, the team leader, took out the tow rope from the first car and began to command everyone to tow the car. After 20 minutes, the vehicle finally escaped from danger and the team was on the road again.

　　"When traveling in mountainous areas, the road conditions are complex and the slope is steep and steep, so be sure to prepare a tow rope." Chang Junyi said that when the vehicle climbs a steep slope or breaks down, the tow rope can be used as a rescue tool to get the vehicle out of danger in time and ensure that life and property are not lost. In addition, emergency tools such as flashlights, medicines and survival whistle should be prepared in the toolbox, as well as fire extinguishers, rain gear and compasses. "Be well prepared and travel carefully. Don’t panic at critical moments, and always ensure safety first. " He said.

　　Go on road trip Association

　　Grasp the road conditions and do what you can.

　　"go on road trip, you can’t just leave. You should be prepared before you leave." Li Jianhua, president of go on road trip Association of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, said that there are many preparations before departure, the first one is vehicle inspection, and emergency rescue tools are also prepared. "You can’t have any luck, because a little problem can also lead to great disaster."

　　"Of course, pre-departure preparation also includes a grasp of road conditions." Li Jianhua recalled the winter before, when he took his motorcade all the way across the Tianshan Mountains along the highway. Halfway up the mountain, the association received a message for help: "A car was stuck because of snow on the road."

　　Li Jianhua continued to stop by. When they arrived, they saw a family of three trying to push the cart, but the car did not move. In the ice and snow, the hands of the whole family were frozen stiff. Fortunately, Li Jianhua and others arrived in time, and a group of people, Qi Xin, took the car back to Urumqi.

　　"go on road trip tourists must first understand the road conditions and weather information. Secondly, we should be sure of the actual performance of the car. At the same time, we should pay attention to the fact that many cars go hand in hand. " Li Jianhua said.

　　"After departure, try to drive on regular roads, and don’t explore at will." Li Jianhua said that this summer, several cars in the Gobi Desert in Karamay were stuck in soft sand because they wanted to take a different road out of curiosity. When the rescue vehicle arrived, several drivers had obviously suffered from heatstroke. "go on road trip tourists try to drive on regular routes without a professional team leader."

　　Li Jianhua suggested that if you want to drive to no man’s land, tourists should pay attention to the choice of vehicles and professional tour leaders. For the sake of safety, tourists should choose hard-core off-road vehicles with locks that are less than 5 years old, have no hidden diseases. The professional team leader must at least meet the following requirements: at least 5 years of outdoor driving experience; Hold a formal team leader certificate; Understand and master a variety of outdoor skills.

　　Take multiple measures to ensure safety.

　　"Bozhou Meteorological Observatory issued a yellow warning for lightning: It is expected that there will be thunderstorms in most parts of Bozhou this afternoon to night. Please take precautions." On July 31st, Chen Xin, a Shanghai tourist who was in go on road trip, Bortala Mongolian Autonomous Prefecture, Xinjiang, received such a message. Chen Xin told reporters that the day was the seventh day of go on road trip. After walking through three prefectures in Xinjiang, she received many such short messages on her mobile phone: "This kind of early warning is beneficial for us to plan the self-driving route and improve the safety."

　　Li Wei, chief planner of the Tourism Development Committee of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, said that the Tourism Development Committee of the Autonomous Region has strengthened cooperation with meteorological, transportation and land departments to provide a safer tourism environment for go on road trip tourists.

　　Strengthen meteorological early warning. "The weather in mountainous areas of Xinjiang is changeable, so tourists in go on road trip must be reminded to take precautions." Li Wei said that there are two ways to issue weather warnings to tourists. First, the local meteorological department directly pushes text messages to all tourists entering the jurisdiction. Second, the meteorological department will send it to the Tourism Commission, and then the Tourism Commission will push it to various scenic spots, travel agencies and highway departments.

　　Add tourist signs. "The car is driving on a highway or a national highway, and the intersections and signs are clear at a glance." This is the second time that Li Zhiyun, a tourist from go on road trip, Guangdong Province, came to Xinjiang. He said that compared with what he saw four years ago, there have been great changes.

　　Improve the emergency rescue mechanism. According to Li Wei, on July 11th, the HKTB held a warning meeting on safety production and emergency support for the tourism industry in Xinjiang, started the emergency mechanism for safety production in summer tourist season, and set up an emergency leading group for safety production in summer. At the meeting, it was pointed out that it is necessary to carry out targeted tourism emergency plan drills and make emergency preparations for rescue teams, equipment and materials; At the same time, strengthen the duty on duty, and immediately start the emergency mechanism in the event of an emergency.

　　A few days ago, the Action Plan for the Integrated Development of Transportation and Tourism in Xinjiang, jointly compiled by the Department of Transportation of the Autonomous Region and the Tourism Commission, is under consideration, and its purpose is also to strengthen the supply of self-driving tourism services in Xinjiang. In the plan, the route of go on road trip, Xinjiang, sign guidance, safety guarantee and emergency rescue, public information and so on will be planned in more detail to ensure the safety of tourists coming to go on road trip, Xinjiang.

4. Sever social media ties. 切断社网

We love hitting up Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram to keep tabs on friends and relations.

5. Make a phone stack. stack mobile phones

Today, it seems nearly impossible to put your phone down for 60 consecutive minutes. Phone stacks are a cliché, but they work: Whether dining at home or out on the town, implement a no-device policy, no exceptions. To make it stick, you can place phones in a stack in the center of the table. Even better, have a waiter or coat check place them out of site so no one can break the rules, and there aren’t hard feelings.
Nowadays, it is almost impossible not to watch your mobile phone for an hour in a row. Although the game of "stacking mobile phones" is out of date, it is actually very easy to use: whether you are eating at home or going on a business trip abroad, you should practice the "no mobile phone policy" and there should be no accidents.

Having general rules for indulging in gadget time are too easy to slack on, just like diets and workouts. Take the next 10 minutes to figure out the hours when your tech is truly indispensable, and then nail down times when it should never be used: dinnertime, when you’re with the kids, and yes, in bed. Be specific and be rigid. Have a designated, inconvenient spot where your device should go during those times so that you don’t cave — a cabinet upstairs, in your car, or in the basement.
It is easy to make a general plan to limit the time spent on mobile phones, just like the original weight loss and fitness. After reading this article, take ten minutes to think about when you have to use these technology products, and then decide when you will never use them: at dinner, with your children, and of course, in bed. The plan must be specific and strict. Also find a home for your mobile phone during these hours, and make sure it is not so convenient and easy to get. You can put it in the cupboard upstairs, in your car or in the basement.

7. Cut the cord. cut the network cable

There are tons of apps dedicated to keeping you from losing focus on whichever task you’re meant to be accomplishing and instead heading down a YouTube or Facebook rabbit hole. Freedom ($10; for Mac or Windows) is a surefire desktop application that lets you pick a window of time for which the Internet gets locked on your PC. If you want to hop online before the time is up, you have to reboot your computer. If your work requires that you have Internet access, try anti-social, a $15 application that lets you select which services you block, rather than the entire Internet.
There are countless applications that make you unable to concentrate on your tasks, from YouTube to Facebook that dazzles you. Freedom ($10 for Mac and Windows) is a software that allows you to lock your computer and get off the Internet.

8. Move your charger. move the charger.

Battery life continues to be the Achilles heal of most mobile devices, which means many of us rush between charging sessions all day. Find a dedicated place at home to charge your device that’s within earshot, but not convenient, and make it a daily ritual to come home, remove the phone from your person and leave it there even if it’s fully charged already. If you need to take a call, keep it locked to the charging cable so you aren’t tempted to walk away with it afterward.
Battery life is the achilles heel of most mobile devices, which means that many of us rush between charging plugs every day. Find a special charging place in your home and make sure it is within your hearing range and not so accessible. Then what I have to do after going home every day is to put down my mobile phone and let it charge slowly. If you want to make a phone call, don’t unplug it from the charging line, so you won’t take it away after the call.

9. automatically your attention. automatic setting

These two functions can be set to automatically turn on at a specific time and place, and of course you can temporarily turn them off or on if you want to take a break for a few minutes.

10. Shame yourself. be ashamed of it
