Attention, everyone! The new state is about to introduce new traffic regulations!
No one expected the new state to promulgate this type of traffic rule, and the fact is that in September, it was about to become a "landmine" and let you and I unknowingly pay a fine!
You must remember that in South Australia, there is a strange traffic rule: when you encounter a police car or ambulance that is on a mission (or flashing a light), the speed of all the surrounding vehicles must be reduced to 25 kmhm / h. Otherwise, there will be a speeding ticket based on 25km/h!
Once, many people who went to South Australia for a self-driving tour suffered this loss, and for some reason they were fined hundreds of dollars.
And now, you don't have to worry about going to South Australia for a self-driving trip friends, because the rules have been changed to move to the new state, so that you can experience the feeling of being ambushed in front of your home!
According to the head of the new state road safety center, the new state will implement a number of new traffic regulations in September, including one that is easily overlooked: emergency vehicle deceleration rules.
The new road rules require drivers to slow down at 40 km / h as they pass through emergency vehicles, such as police vehicles, fire engines, and ambulances.
What does this mean?
In the past, for example, if you saw an ambulance running to you at the back of a 140km/h, just pull over and make way for it, and you could still pull over at the speed of 100km/h, as long as you didn't get in the way.
And now is different, you not only have to give way to ambulances, but also make way at the speed of 40km/h, which makes you more sincere.
Not only that, if you used to see a police car on the highway on the side of the road trying to catch someone speeding, you could not only go by the side at the 100km/h speed limit, you could even gloat by the way.
But now, you have to slow down to 40km/h and gloat.
If you give way to dishonesty or gloating too quickly, then sorry, you will be fined 448 and deducted 3 points!
The head of the New State Road Safety Center also said the new rules are to ensure the safety of emergency workers and hope that emergency workers will not be victims while working.
One of the officials, Bernard Carlon, said: "this rule will give emergency workers extra protection and confidence to ensure that they can return home safely and be reunited with family and friends."
Yes, it does ensure that both the driver and the emergency workers can return home safely, but one of them may be poor.
Of course, there is something wrong with the new traffic rules, and many drivers have criticized the impropriety of the rules on social media and, of course, their statements are well founded.
Some drivers say it is dangerous to slow down to 40 km / h on busy roads such as expressways.
Indeed, as friends who have driven the car know, driving in the 110km/h area with a 40km/h is quite dangerous. On the one hand, sudden speeds can cause baby seats to fly out, on the other hand, This also creates a safety hazard to the rear driving vehicles.
At present, Tasmania, Victoria and South Australia are all implementing relevant traffic regulations, and the new state's traffic regulations will be tested for 12 months from September this year. I believe that in this process, all aspects of the rules will also be reasonably perfected, regardless of how. Road safety comes first.
