February 26th, 2021 is the Lantern Festival, which is near the weekend. During the holidays, people and vehicles flow heavily. In order to ensure the safe and smooth road traffic during the holidays and create a good road traffic safety environment for celebrating the festival, the Traffic Management Bureau of Jilin Provincial Public Security Department issued the "Lantern Festival Two Announcements and One Prompt" in Changchun City, asking the majority of traffic participants to reasonably choose travel time, travel routes and travel modes, avoid travel peaks and easy-to-block sections, drive safely and travel safely.

Weather conditions during the Lantern Festival

During the Lantern Festival, expressways are not free. According to the "Implementation Plan for Exempting Small Bus Tolls for Major Holidays", the policy of free passage of 7-seat (including 7-seat) small bus expressways will be implemented for four national statutory holidays: Spring Festival, Tomb-Sweeping Day, Labor Day and National Day.

Prediction of traffic flow during Lantern Festival

It is estimated that the population flow in the Lantern Festival in 2021 is significantly lower than that in previous years, and there is a strong uncertainty in traffic flow. Before the holiday, the traffic flow will be relatively dispersed, and after the holiday, it will be more concentrated, and the road traffic flow in the bustling business district will increase greatly.

Traffic safety tips for Lantern Festival

1. During the Lantern Festival, family reunions with relatives and friends and short trips increase. Drivers are requested to travel at the wrong peak as much as possible. In case of traffic congestion, please obey the traffic police’s command, do not force traffic jams, and do not fight for roads.

2. Friends get together to celebrate the Lantern Festival and drink more. Drinking alcohol will lead to slow response and slow action, and the driver’s ability to control the vehicle will decrease. For the safety of you and others, please remember "drink without driving, drive without drinking!"

3. Take part in the Lantern Festival folk celebrations. Never drive or take overcrowded minivans or passenger vehicles. Never take tractors, low-speed trucks or illegally operate "black cars" to travel.

4. When driving minivans and passenger vehicles through icy wading roads, please keep driving at a constant speed, keep a distance from the vehicle in front, and do not brake suddenly to avoid side slip.

5. There are many people in tourist attractions, so drivers should pay attention to civility and courtesy, obey traffic signals, don’t make a sharp turn at intersections or narrow sections without traffic lights, and pay attention to slowing down when driving through crosswalks or intersections to avoid unnecessary traffic injuries.

6. During the festival, the traffic volume is heavy. If there is a traffic accident, please call the police in time. If there are no casualties and minor traffic accidents, you should leave the scene immediately after taking photos, and drive to an open place to negotiate or call the police for handling, so as to prevent traffic congestion or secondary accidents; If there are casualties, protect the scene, rescue them in time, and call the police immediately. Don’t be lucky enough to escape.

Expressway driving tips

First, prevent the car from being in bad condition

Before leaving the vehicle, check the vehicle and keep it in good condition.

Second, prevent improper overtaking of passing cars

Try to avoid overtaking, and when passing, the qualified party should take the initiative to stop for courtesy; At night, the lights are used to signal to ensure that they meet slowly under safe conditions.

Third, prevent turning too fast

When turning, you should slow down the speed ahead of time, hold the steering wheel steady and tap it slowly. When the line of sight is not good, turn left to the right as far as possible to expand the driving sight.

Four, prevent braking too fast

Concentrate on driving, try to use predictive braking, and make good use of the engine’s drag to slow down to avoid emergency braking.

The Lantern Festival will remain unchanged.

If you encounter an emergency on the expressway, please call the 24-hour alarm number in time: 0431-12122.
