Nowadays, with the increase of traffic laws and regulations, the phenomenon of running red light is obviously reduced. The pedestrian, vehicle and traffic lights like rob time on our side often, known as "a false start". These people always have luck, the next few seconds for the green light". Well, if you drive to the intersection when you find the green light flashing red, you are choosing to slow down and wait for the next traffic lights, or choose to sprint in the past? In fact, this behavior seems to be able to save a few seconds of waiting time, but there is a big security risk, it is easy to lead to danger.

Pedestrian crossing risk: a false start

Yesterday, Guizhou Metropolis Daily reporter, has to sword Jiang Zhong Lu old railway station near the intersection, sword river road and culture Road intersection, the small crossroads, Cape road and warble wind road intersection etc. visited found, traffic lights, many "false start family."

Yesterday midday 12 when Xu, in Cape road and wind warble Road intersection, the reporter with other pedestrians stood at the intersection, wait for the green light after crossing the road, at this time, show the opposite the red light Countdown: 5 seconds, 4 seconds... But there are 2 seconds, many people began to walk down the sidewalk.

Also when the green light countdown 5 seconds, many pedestrians have given up traffic, but there are pedestrians use the nick, fighting for the last few seconds, so just go to the middle of the road, all kinds of cars has been launched, at that time, many people caught in the traffic thriller "Tu Wei."

Car: grab the line easy to build

At the same time, in addition to the pedestrian, the reporters also found that vehicle is equally eager to "false start, intersection signal lights, some drivers open enough horsepower roar over, but some drivers due to the slow start, which also led to the dissatisfaction of the rear of the vehicle, a variety of car horns and the rise and fall.

When the green light will turn red and yellow light has began to flicker, some vehicles also non to galloped off, also gallop vehicles but emergency brakes, stopped at the warning marking. So "fierce" and "fierce" is a series of phenomena.

"Often in the intersection to see, pedestrians in order to grab the time, go to the middle of the road, the vehicle is approaching, often are not far from the pedestrian is not far to slam the brakes to stop." Public Liu said, some people seem to cross the road as if very anxious, but I feel very anxious, is like in the green light only five or six seconds after rushing across the road, but when crossing the road and feel like walking, slow. "Now the road is so wide, car fast, although it is walking on the zebra crossing, but if not timely vehicle avoidance, the consequences will be unimaginable."

"Small crossroads often blocking, probably because they are in the last few seconds." Citizens Mr. Li told reporters that a few days ago in the small crossroads in Duyun City, a car parked in front of him clearly see lights start blinking, has stepped on the gas at once crossed the white line.

Although, after running the yellow light not punished, but subsequently, the car vehicle grab but was blocked in the middle of the road, because when the pedestrian can pass. In this way, slow traffic not to say, after a few seconds and green, the vehicle immediately rushed to, and not in a timely manner through the vehicle together together, forming a congestion, chaos, and therefore blocked the good for a few minutes. "Grab the line seems to be faster, but the reality is very easy to cause traffic jams, but a waste of time, but also affect the normal passage of other vehicles."

Traffic police: people do not pass the traffic lights"

In this regard, Tuyun City Public Security Traffic Police Brigade police, usually the case, after the green light to be turned into a red light, so the yellow light is the transition to a green light, generally 3 seconds. Green lights before the last 3 seconds, plus yellow lights for 3 seconds, just 6 seconds, if a pedestrian or driver to grab the last few seconds, forced through the intersection, the most prone to traffic accidents, the main reason is that if the other direction of the vehicle does not pay attention to the speed, it is easy to cause accidents.

"In particular, a number of electric vehicles, pedestrians in the traffic lights are not left a few seconds later, most will choose to accelerate, there will be a lot of security risks." Police remind people and vehicles in the intersection is best the patience to wait for the traffic lights, vehicle in close to the traffic lights junction, should also be to slow down to avoid pedestrians. Pedestrian traffic lights, solar traffic lights, do not take a walk through the zebra crossing, to speed up the zebra crossing, but also to remember not to "grab the lights" to avoid accidents.

According to the introduction, the traffic lights countdown 5 seconds, 20 meters away from the stop line is not accelerated by.

Motor vehicles through the intersection, the first should reduce the speed of travel, pay attention to observe, in recognition of the safety of traffic, the speed of the intersection through the general at 40 km / h. The main role of the signal lamp on the intersection of the intersection, is to remind the remaining time through the intersection, so that the driver to make a response.

Then, the intersection traffic lights countdown, exactly how many seconds passed before it is safe and appropriate? According to reports, taking into account the traffic in the car should be kept safe distance, plus the intersection may occur, according to the 40 km / h of the upper limit speed, if the signal lights to enter the countdown 5 seconds, 20 meters from the stop line, it is not appropriate to accelerate through the intersection. Otherwise the front car once the brakes, the intersection suddenly appeared pedestrians, non motorized vehicles, etc.
