How should drivers prevent traffic accidents caused by health reasons?

With the recent expiration of the car tail number limit, cars have once again become a hot topic of discussion. Many people hope that the ban on driving every week can be lifted, but few people pay attention to the health hazards that vehicles bring to owners. In this regard, Beijing Health Insurance Association suggested that car owners should pay attention to their own health and prevent traffic accidents caused by drivers' health.

Noise and vibration may affect health and driving.

Lv Xixiang, chairman of the Health Management and Physician Health Insurance Committee of the Chinese Medical Association, believes that gasoline, carbon monoxide, tetraethyl lead, noise and vibration will all have a certain impact on the health and safety of drivers. Among them, inhaling carbon monoxide can increase the content of carboxyhemoglobin in human blood and affect the driver's attention; The influence of noise on the mood of car owners.

The measurement results of cab noise during driving show that the average noise is lower than the specified standard of 85dB(A), but it is 98. 1dB(A) when whistling, which obviously exceeds the national standard and may have harmful effects on human body.

At the same time, vibration will have an impact on the owner's operating ability-contact vibration will reduce the conduction speed of the body, resulting in a decline in operating ability, which will affect the accuracy of hand movements to a certain extent.

Severe bumping is harmful to the lumbar spine.

Zhang Shouyi, the chief final inspector of Ciming Physical Examination Group, believes that car owners should avoid the "overdue service" of old cars, install air isolation devices on chairs, and add cushions with moderate hardness to chairs; Maintain the correct driving posture and ensure the moderate stress on the lumbar spine; A driving time should not be too long. Generally, you can stop for a rest every 2 hours. When the road conditions are bad, the speed should not be too fast and the operation should not be too fierce, otherwise the violent bump of the car will do great harm to the lumbar spine.

Also pay attention to muscle spasm, because the vibration of the car will be directly transmitted to the human body through the steering wheel. If this goes on, it will easily lead to muscle spasm, atrophy and even osteoarthrosis. Therefore, it is necessary to properly move your knuckles when driving for a long time.

When driving, you should use a bass horn, the music volume should not be too loud, and you can wear anti-noise earplugs at the same time. Repeated exposure to strong noise will cause irreversible deafness; Turn on the air conditioner for a long time, and the turbid air will do harm to the driver. It is best to open the window for 5 minutes every once in a while to let fresh air circulate.
