Introduction to emergency braking techniques in Subject 4: Brake failure: In this situation, do not panic, first release the accelerator, then shift to a lower gear, use the handbrake, turn on the hazard lights, and steer the vehicle away from the main lane to the roadside. If the speed cannot be controlled, you can collide with the roadside guardrail to slow down, but avoid side collisions. Tire blowout: There are two scenarios for a tire blowout. The first is a front tire blowout, in which case you should gently press the brake pedal, hold the steering wheel firmly, and avoid putting too much force on the front of the car. The second is a rear tire blowout, in which case you should repeatedly press the brake pedal, hold the steering wheel firmly, keep the car moving straight, shift the center of gravity forward, and reduce the force on the rear tire. Therefore, when a tire blows out, it is essential to identify the problem to avoid improper emergency handling that could cause greater harm. Vehicle breakdown on the highway: First, immediately turn on the hazard warning flashers, then move the vehicle to a place where it does not obstruct traffic. If the vehicle is difficult to move, keep the hazard warning flashers on. At night, also turn on the side marker lights and rear position lights, and set up a warning sign at least 150 meters behind the vehicle in the direction of oncoming traffic. Passengers should quickly move to the emergency lane and call for help immediately. Rollover or fall: Lower your body, tense your muscles, and focus on protecting your head and heart. Hold onto fixed objects inside the car and roll with the vehicle. Vehicle submerged in water: Before the car sinks, roll down or break the window to escape. If the car is already submerged, wait for the water level inside to rise, then open the door or swim out through the window. First aid at the accident scene: The basic sequence of on-site rescue is to call for help first, then provide aid. Prioritize rescuing people over property. If a victim is trapped in the wreckage, do not pull or drag forcefully; use machinery to pry or cut the vehicle to free the victim.
