If you cut in, you will get hit. Do you call this a driving school instructor?
Chapter 193 Oncoming vehicles use high beams at night? If you don’t dodge, I’ll kill you!
"Crash..."
Because it was raining, Gu Yin and Xia Qianyi didn't take the highway. The journey back took about an hour. Although the rain was not as heavy as before, Gu Yin's windshield wipers never stopped the whole way...
Maybe it was because of the rain and cloudy weather, the sky got dark especially quickly. It doesn't get dark that early in this season. Normally it feels like it gets dark around 6:, but now it's not even o'clock yet and it's already pitch dark.
"I've been seeing a lot of videos online recently about co-pilots," Xia Qianyi said. "They say that the reason why a co-pilot is called a co-pilot is because it plays a supporting role, such as helping with navigation or seeing the road. Is that true?"
I don’t know if it’s because she has had a lot of contact with Gu Yin, a man whose job is related to “cars”, but now Xia Qianyi can often see this kind of videos when watching them.
Sometimes she couldn't help but sigh, wondering how the intelligent algorithms of those short videos were calculated. How could they grasp her preferences so accurately?
"Eating," Gu Yin nodded, glanced at Xia Qianyi with amusement, and said, "An excellent co-pilot's eating should play an auxiliary role, instead of watching TV series, eating snacks, sleeping, driving unsteadily, and yelling when the horn is loud..."
"...Who are you mocking?" Xia Qianyi's mouth twitched.
"Anyway, I didn't mention you," Gu Yin said bluntly, "Don't take it personally, okay?"
"Who is taking it for granted?!" Xia Qianyi pouted: "You mean a couple going out to play, right? Let alone a couple, we have never even gone out to play together..."
As she spoke, Xia Qianyi's face turned slightly red, and her voice became smaller and smaller, and she lowered her head shyly.
"Ahem..." Gu Yin's face also turned red, feeling a little embarrassed. What's wrong with Xia Qianyi? Why is she so shy after coming back this time?
You just say things that can cause misunderstandings. Shame on you!
"Let's talk about the co-pilot..." Bringing the topic back to the co-pilot, Gu Yin scratched his head and said, "For example, when driving on a long and straight highway, you get sleepy after driving for a long time. It's also boring to be alone, and time seems to pass very slowly. At those times, chatting with the co-pilot not only keeps you from getting sleepy, but also helps you pass the time. It's safe and fun."
"Emm..." Xia Qianyi poked her lower lip with her index finger, looking a little silly. She asked, "What if the co-pilot can't chat?"
"...You're just trying to argue, huh?" Gu Yin's mouth twitched: "Then let's change the co-pilot! Whoever is good at chatting will take over!"
"Hey, why are you so anxious?" Xia Qianyi couldn't help but glared at him: "I'm just talking about the facts, right?"
"You are clearly just trying to argue!" Gu Yin did not give in at all.
The two of them just walked and chattered.
The night outside the window and the rain outside the window are not so scary now that there is someone to chat with.
It is worth mentioning that because Gu Yin was driving, Xia Qianyi did not dare to attack him no matter how angry she was for safety reasons. However, Gu Yin was a mean guy, and he took advantage of the fact that she did not dare to touch him and started to attack her in various ways.
Xia Qianyi was so angry that she said to Gu Yin, "Just wait. If you have the ability, drive your car for the rest of your life without stopping. Otherwise, I will let you know what the "Nine Yin White Bone Claw" is!"
【Hahaha……】
The audience in the "Reconciliation with Life" live broadcast room next door couldn't help laughing at the long-lost scene of the two people bickering with each other:
[They still use the familiar formula! ]
[Xia Qianyi should be more cheerful. I like her cheerfulness...]
[You didn’t like it before? Oh~ Then I took away the Xia Qianyi before. ]
[…You’re trying to take advantage of a loophole, right?!]
[Hahaha… But does the long, straight highway that Coach Gu mentioned really exist? ]
[IP Guizhou? Hahaha… It’s because of the terrain, brother. You’ll know when you drive on Shandong Expressway. ]
……
While there was laughter in the car, the two of them came to the national highway after passing through a crowded alley.
After all, it is a national highway, and there are still many cars even when it rains and blows. Although it is the weekend, it is still the standard evening rush hour at five or six in the evening. There are still many cars when passing the traffic lights. Fortunately, Gu Yin is an experienced driver, so the journey is relatively safe.
The two of them went from the national highway to the elevated road. After getting off the elevated road, they were not far from the residential area where Xia Qianyi lived. It is worth mentioning that...
The road near Xia Qianyi's residential area was not narrow, strictly speaking. It had four lanes in both directions, plus two emergency lanes, so it was actually quite spacious...
Because this is not a busy road and the traffic volume is not heavy, there will never be a situation like the one that Gu Yin drove on this morning on the extremely narrow riverside road, where a bunch of cars were blocked by slow-moving cars, and then some cars crossed the line and overtook in the opposite direction.
But the problem is...
There is no guardrail between the two roads, only a simple yellow line.
Yes, maybe because the lane is not narrow and the traffic volume is not heavy, no car from Gu Yin's side or the oncoming car crossed the line...
But without a guardrail, the lights from oncoming vehicles shone onto Gu Yin and Xia Qianyi's faces from a distance without any obstruction.
"Your mother..."
After turning the corner, Gu Yin couldn't help but curse, because there was a car driving towards him in the opposite lane with high beams on in the distance.
Sometimes...
When you are on the road, you really can't understand the thought processes of some idiots.
What I'm saying is, on this road, there are sections with street lights and you can see the road clearly, so what's the point of turning on the high beam? !
For example, the street lights on the road that Gu Yin and his friends were walking on were all installed by the relevant departments in the middle of last year because they were too old and outdated!
On this entire road, not to mention cars with their lights on, even the people riding bicycles on the side of the road without their lights on can be seen clearly with the naked eye!
We all understand that you must turn on the lights when driving at night. If you don't turn on the lights, people won't be able to see you in the rearview mirror, which can easily cause an accident...
But the question is, why the hell are you turning on the high beam? !
"You're sick!"
Sitting in the passenger seat, Xia Qianyi was blinded by the lights coming from afar...
Not sure if she was influenced by Gu Yin or if she was disgusted by this kind of behavior, Xia Qianyi couldn't help but frown and complain.
"Maybe he's blind." Gu Yin added silently, "How can you drive your mother's car if you're blind..."
Not to mention Gu Yin and Xia Qianyi, when the high beam from the opposite side shone on the camera of the "Reconciliation with Life" program on Gu Yin's chest, the audience watching the program next door couldn't help but start cursing:
[Your mother...you usually flash your eyes when driving on the road, and I have to flash my eyes when I'm watching a show?! ]
[This is the most disgusting thing when driving on the road. Some high beams are so bright that you can't see the road at all! ]
[Hehe~ I once hit an electric bike crossing the zebra crossing because the high beam on the other side was too bright and I couldn’t see the road ahead clearly...]
【? What happened afterwards, big brother? Tell me about it. Keep going, don’t stop!】
[…You’re here to watch the fun, right?! ]
[Oh, don’t worry about so many details…]
[What can I do afterwards? I must have compensated the pedestrians on the zebra crossing, so I am fully responsible...]
[Didn’t you tell the traffic police that it was because of the high beams of the oncoming car? ]
[What does it matter if I say it? Can the traffic police still look for that car in the middle of the night because of you? And there is no surveillance on that road. I couldn’t see the license plate clearly because the high beam was too bright. My dashcam didn’t capture it either. It’s really disgusting…]
[No way... is this too much? ]
[I also had one time...]
……
A man in the live broadcast room shared his personal experience and recounted how he was disgusted by the high beams of oncoming cars, which resonated with countless netizens.
High beams are really harmful to both you and others, and they are annoying no matter you are in your lane or the other lane.
In the other lane, just like Gu Yin is now, someone is shining the light into your eyes and can't see the road clearly. You must hate them if your eyes are uncomfortable with the flash. It would be even more disgusting if you can't see the road clearly because of the flash and get an accident.
In one's own lane, the guy who was driving high beams behind Gu Yin and who had been punished by Gu Yin before would also be flashed in the rearview mirror of the car in front. If he is not careful, he would slow down and go around behind Gu Yin to dodge him.
No matter what, high beams are annoying...
But some people are just so mean, they are like blind people and they insist on opening it.
Under what circumstances are high beams generally turned on?
The first are sections of road with no lighting or poor lighting, such as roads in some rural and mountainous areas, or sections of road with damaged lighting facilities. In such places, turning on the high beam can allow the driver to see the road conditions at a longer distance, such as whether there are potholes, obstacles, pedestrians, or animals, so that the driver can react in advance.
The second is the highway with a wide field of vision. Generally, the road on the highway is straight with a wide field of vision, and there are no street lights. The cars travel at such a fast speed. If there is a fool driving in front of you at night without turning on the lights, you will be in trouble if you don’t see that person.
It's best to avoid using high beams on the highway. Even if you do use high beams, try to keep a safe distance from the car in front of you. If you get close, switch to low beams immediately, otherwise you may be easily targeted by the car in front of you.
Apart from the above two points, high beams are basically only used in emergencies or to temporarily remind other road users.
On ordinary roads, like the one Gu Yin and his friends were walking on now, where there were street lights and everything was clearly visible, using high beams was a violation of regulations! It was a deliberate attempt to disgust people!
According to regulations, if the lights are not used as required, such as driving with high beams on the opposite side of the road on a bright road like this, the driver will usually be fined between 20 yuan and 200 yuan, and 1 point will be deducted from the driver's license.
But the problem is...
In this case, either you report him, or he happens to be photographed by the traffic police, otherwise generally no one will punish him.
"Isn't there any camera to record him like this?" Xia Qianyi asked this question.
"...Have you heard of a high-beam camera?" Gu Yin asked.
"Emm..." Xia Qianyi was speechless for a moment.
"Why is there no camera for high beam?" Xia Qianyi couldn't help but ask again.
"...When driving on the road at night, most people will turn on the high beam flashing function to alert the car in front. Did you know this?" Gu Yin asked.
"I know," Xia Qianyi nodded, "You said that, and you use it often."
When driving at night, the flashing function of lights is actually more effective than the horn to some extent, and can better alert the car in front. Most drivers use flashing lights more than horns when driving at night. This can be regarded as a common use of lights.
"Then tell me, how does the camera distinguish whether the vehicle is using high beams or flashing to the vehicle in front?" Gu Yin asked.
yes……
When the electronic camera captures some people, and you say they are using high beams, they will say it is unfair. They were just flashing their lights to warn the car in front, so how could it be considered high beams?
"Emm...this..." Xia Qianyi was speechless for a moment.
"Anyway, taking photos is definitely not allowed," said Gu Yin. "The electronically captured violation video is usually only 3 to 6 seconds long. If the driver only used the high beam for 3 to 6 seconds, people would say that the driver encountered a special situation. Is it a violation and a fine for just a few seconds?"
"...Then there's no way to cure them?" Xia Qianyi's mouth twitched.
"There are some places that have illegal photography of high beams..." Gu Yin curled his lips and said bluntly: "But we don't have that here. We can only rely on ourselves here."
"On our own?" Xia Qianyi was slightly stunned: "How can we rely on it?"
"Emm..." She asked "What the hell" and Gu Yin was stumped. It's not that Gu Yin didn't know the answer, but it was mainly because it was easy for people to misunderstand this question...
"Cough..." Gu Yin coughed lightly, thinking to himself that he didn't know what was wrong with his mind recently. Why was he always daydreaming?
【puff……】
It is worth mentioning that when Gu Yin said "we can only rely on ourselves", the audience in the live broadcast room of "Reconciliation with Life" next door didn't know what they guessed, and the barrage was full of comments:
[I roughly know what Coach Gu is going to do...]
[Pfft... I guessed it too! ]
[I always do the same thing when I see someone driving with high beams on on the road! ]
[Tsk... just can't drive on a road with a lot of traffic, otherwise it's easy to get attacked and retaliated. ]
[Sparrows eat, sparrows eat, anyway, high beams are disgusting. 】
……
Many people in the live broadcast room guessed what Gu Yin was going to do, and Gu Yin did not keep them in suspense...
As the words fell, there was a not-so-crisp "click" sound from the light lever, and Xia Qianyi could see that the light in front of their car seemed to have changed...
From the initial low beam, it changed to a light with something in the middle.
I had been unable to see the road a certain distance ahead because of the blinding light from the oncoming cars, but now I can see it clearly.
Xia Qianyi burst out laughing and asked, "You turned on the high beam too?"
"That's right," Gu Yin nodded, but then shook his head: "But we are not always open."
As he finished speaking, Gu Yin loosened his grip on the left headlight lever, and then the high beam was turned off again.
It was only at this time that Xia Qianyi realized that he didn't seem to be using the high beams, but was using the "flashing" function, with the light stalk moved inwards, just like when he had previously educated the car owner who was driving behind him and using the high beams.
When she realized this, Gu Yin turned on the light faster with the sound of "click, click, click".
Xia Qianyi suppressed her laughter and asked, "Are you trying to remind him?"
"Yes." Gu Yin nodded without hiding anything.
"Why don't you just turn on your high beam and shine your light back?" Xia Qianyi said, "You don't seem to be such a good person, do you?"
Gu Yin: “(¬_¬) look”
"Just talk, why not attack me personally?" Gu Yin rolled his eyes and explained, "Some people may not notice that they are using the high beam, or they may forget to turn it off the last time. If you remind them, they may know and turn it off."
Without waiting for Xia Qianyi to speak, he added, "If you don't care after I remind you, then that's intentional, then..."
Xia Qianyi understood what he said next even without him saying it.
[The pattern...]
The audience in the live broadcast room couldn't help but praise Gu Yin's vision...
But there are also some little black fans who say that Coach Gu has become a coward. Now that Coach Gu is famous, he is more careful about his reputation and is not as courageous as before.
At these times, some experienced old chicken-tearing people in the live broadcast room came out to teach them how to behave...
【You know nothing! 】
[As for high beams, do you think that when you turn them on, you are only lighting the person on the opposite side? ]
[When you turn on the high beam, it illuminates all the oncoming cars! ]
[I'm afraid that when you turn on your high beam, all the cars coming from the opposite direction will also turn on their high beams. If there are many cars on your side, it's okay. If there are few cars on your side or you are the only car, then you are the only one shining the light on the opposite side. Do you think you can do it? ]
[It is better to remind him if you can. Some people just turn it off after dodging it twice. They know what is going on. ]
……
After all, most of the viewers in Gu Yin’s live broadcast room are car owners, most of them drive frequently, and most of them understand Gu Yin’s intention.
In fact, sometimes, when you are driving on the road, you see an oncoming car using high beams. It is not intentional to shine the light on you. It is very likely that the car in front of you or behind you is using high beams, and it is shining the light on the car in your lane...
Similarly, if you see a car in your lane using its high beams, it is very likely that the car is not shining its high beams at you, but at the vehicle in the opposite lane.
This also leads to some "misunderstandings" in many cases...
This creates a misunderstanding that as long as you turn on the high beam, others will follow suit and target you.
This misunderstanding is not a good one. To put it bluntly, the culprit is the person who turned on the high beam at the beginning. There were no special circumstances on the road and the road section was clear and bright with high visibility, but he still turned on the high beam. He is a pure disgusting person...
But you say, can this kind of misunderstanding be avoided?
Does not……
Gu Yin only knew one thing, that is, I don't know why he shone on you, and I don't know whether you were taking revenge on him. I only know that you shone on my eyes, blinded me, and affected my normal driving...
Then, I have to take a photo back.
This is what Gu Yin thought, and the cars coming from the opposite lane may also think the same way.
I don't know whether to say it's bad luck or luck. Today, there are not many cars in the lane Gu Yin is driving on. For example, on the lane he is driving on now, there are several other cars on the opposite side except for the one driving with high beams. On Gu Yin's side, there are only a few cars in front of him...
If Gu Yin really turned on the high beam, it is possible that all the vehicles in the opposite lane would also turn on their high beams.
It will be really lively then.
Gu Yin knew these points, and so did the audience in Gu Yin's live broadcast room. But the question was, did the idiot on the other side who was driving with high beams know them? !
