Before every long road journey, it usually takes drivers a long time to prepare and check the vehicles. The more carefully you prepare, the better so that journeys maintain safety and efficiency. Drivers should pay much attention to components such as: tires, car battery, cooling system… but this step is only enough to set off for the journey. Drivers’ experiences, skills, driving techniques are also very important to ensure the safety and efficiency.

Both drivers and vehicles have to get over a number of kinds of terrains in long day journeys. They also have to adapt to different systems of weather all over the country. If there are rains and floods in the North, the Middle may suffers from drought and high temperature. When you see road full of red soils, it means that you already reach to the Highlands and the North with the typical climate where there are only 2 seasons every year, including summer and rain seasons. No matter what kinds of climate and terrain it is, drivers need to observe carefully, make quick decisions to control vehicles in the safest way.

According to experience of veteran drivers, Transport 24h Co.Ltd would like to share some necessary skills when driving on the roads as followed:

Firstly, observe the road from different directions. Generally, there are the middle lanes which are used for trucks, so drivers need to check out four directions of cars, especially when it is for changing lanes or curves. Many drivers focus on the front and two sides of car but the back. The back of cars is usually difficult to observe due to many “blind points” which drivers can not see. Before changing lanes, drivers should turn on the turning lights to warn other drivers and make sure that you change lanes legally by looking for the signs and road lines. Besides, drivers should maintain medium speed, not be too fast or slow. Vehicles of super weights usually have long semitrailers so if drivers change lanes abruptly and recklessly, it may cause dangers to other vehicles on the road.

In addition, when overtaking another car, drivers need to take definite actions and maintain safe distance from other vehicles. Small trucks under 5 tons should not go along with types of vehicles with weights from 15 to 27 tons, containers, semitrailers on the same lane. In reality, super weight vehicles usually go slowly, leading to drivers’ small trucks’ recklessness and their decisions of unsafe overtaking. This is one of wrong actions and usually results in unexpected situations.

Finally, drivers should maintain medium speed and comply with traffic regulations. Only when you drive legally, each transport journey will bring excellent and sustainable values./.
