It is necessary to go deep into the road passenger and freight transport enterprises to carry out a law enforcement inspection, promote the compaction of the main responsibility of safety production, focus on urging the passenger transport enterprises to implement the outbound inspection system, and the source units such as freight stations to strictly control the exit, and it is strictly forbidden for vehicles and drivers to run with “sickness” , Strictly prevent trucks with hidden dangers such as overloading, illegal modification, etc. from running on the road, strictly punish enterprises with problems in accordance with laws and regulations, and supervise the implementation of rectification. It is necessary to guide the expressway operation and management units to carry out comprehensive self-inspection and evaluation, strictly implement the weighing inspection requirements at the entrance of the expressway, and resolutely prevent over-limit and overloaded vehicles from entering the expressway. It is necessary to carry out in-depth summer traffic safety rectification actions, increase inspections of key passenger and freight transport vehicles, severely crack down on serious traffic violations such as speeding, overcrowding, overloading, fatigue driving, and illegal modification, and deepen the research, analysis and precise investigation of key hidden danger vehicles. Improve road surface control performance. It is necessary to thoroughly investigate and control highways with long and steep slopes, steep and steep slopes, water and cliffs, construction sections, and key sections that are prone to water accumulation, landslides, water damage, and landslides during flood seasons, and solve related problems in a timely manner and add and improve warning facilities as needed. , especially for continuous long and steep downhill road sections, comprehensively adopt scientific speed limit, control flow, implement driving on the right, add parking areas on slope tops, avoidance lanes, cooling facilities and other methods to improve road safety guarantee capabilities. It is necessary to organize and carry out publicity activities such as the “Safety in Summer” publicity campaign, the “Bright Screen Action” on the expressway, and the “Beautiful Countryside Tour” publicity tour, make good use of typical accident cases and warning education films, and use the case as a warning Effectively strengthen warning publicity and safety reminders.

In the “July 17” accident on the Zhangye section of Lianhuo Expressway in Gansu, the maximum allowable gross weight of the heavy-duty semi-trailer truck involved in the accident was 49 tons. 87.1 tons, and using the illegally installed jumping scale device, drove from the Cuierzhuang Toll Station in Cangzhou City to the Cangyu Expressway (the weighing sheet showed only 31.45 tons), and headed for Jiayuguan, Gansu. When driving to the 2089 kilometers plus 300 meters maintenance construction section of Lianhuo Expressway in Zhangye, Gansu Province, the vehicle lost control and collided with 5 small passenger cars and 2 heavy trucks waiting in line for passage. After a preliminary investigation by the local public security agency, the heavy-duty semi-trailer truck involved in the accident was seriously overrun and overloaded. It was driving on a long downhill section (the slope of the accident section was 34.2 kilometers long, with a drop of 687 meters, and the accident site was 14.9 kilometers away from the top of the slope). The brakes failed and the vehicle lost control. is the direct cause of the accident. The public security organs have taken criminal coercive measures against the driver and actual owner of the heavy-duty semi-trailer truck involved in the accident, and those responsible for illegal modification of the truck, illegal loading, and illegal weighing. At present, the clues to the problem and the management responsibilities of relevant departments and personnel are still being further investigated.

The Ministry of Public Security reminds passenger and freight companies and drivers to perform safety duties according to law. Companies should strengthen daily vehicle safety inspections, implement GPS dynamic supervision, strengthen driver safety education, drivers should enhance awareness of prevention, and improve safe driving and emergency response capabilities. In particular, it is necessary to avoid over-limit and overloading of trucks. Over-limit and overloading will cause vehicle components to be in an overloaded state, seriously affecting vehicle braking and handling performance, and prone to safety accidents such as brake failure and tire blowout. When trucks pass by waterfronts and cliffs, sharp curves and steep slopes, and construction roads, slow down and drive carefully, especially when driving on long downhill roads, put in a low gear, use the engine to control the speed, and choose according to the situation when going downhill. Stop and rest in a safe place, reduce the temperature of the brakes, and reduce the hidden danger of brake failure.
