How to protect yourself when riding a car crash?

Little cool has something to say: riding a team is growing stronger? Xiaoku is here today to sum up how we can protect ourselves if we encounter crashes.


1. Fully equipped before riding

Ready - Hard hats, gloves, and bicycle-specific shoes; generally, under the impact of 24 kilometers per hour, if you wear a bicycle helmet that meets the standards, you can absorb more than 90% of the impact force. Less than 10% of the rest is delivered to the head, within the limits of the human body.

Studies have shown that those who wear helmets have a 12% lower risk of death than non-wearers; those who have serious injuries (more than 9 points) have a relative risk reduction of 27%.


2. Eyes staring at road ahead

Pay attention to stones, trees or any obstacles that may cause you to fall. Especially when the road is full of reflective buttons and manhole covers, riders should be especially careful when driving; pay special attention to the fact that there are muddy roads or muddy roads. At the time, just as wet or slippery on a rainy or frozen road, it is possible to slip on a brake and be especially cautious.


3. The body is in a "cat" posture

Recognizing that the car is about to fall, protect the head with your hands and arms, move your chin closer to your chest, bend your arms, and prepare to absorb the force of the impact, just like the kitten who only squints his body into a ball. .



Falling cars are generally divided into active crashes and accidental crashes.


Active crash: In the case that it is predicted that the bicycle can no longer be controlled, in order to avoid causing greater consequences, consciously caused by their own wishes caused by the crash, in general, this crash has the least consequences;

Accidental crash: In the case of a bicycle crash, a crash that occurs when it is completely unprepared and unpredictable. In this case, if the driver does not undergo training to form a subconscious protective response, the consequences are generally more severe. Terrible.


When crashing, be sure to calm down. Any panic will only make you more painful, and serious will make you feel painless at all. If you can realize that you are about to fall, that is, the so-called active crash, then suggest that you quickly jump from the car for a few seconds and stay as far away from your bike as possible. Even if you fall down, no matter how devastated, it will be much better than letting your car get to yourself.


When the tragedy happens, the first thing is to make sure that you haven’t suffered any serious harm and that you can get up from the ground. Take a trip to see if you are still alive or not. If there is no second car passing around, it will quickly shift to a safe place on the roadside and begin to examine carefully where it fell.




Then check your body and bike in the following order:


First, slow down

Many people who fell, they usually claim that they are okay, but often when they are forced to stand up from the ground, the other butt fell back. In this case, you better stand up slowly and move around. You don't need to ride a car to Bunny hop at the first time. Just slowly and accurately assess the extent to which your body and your car are probably injured. "Can you make sure that you can move around before you cycle?" said the doctor. "Can your hand rotate 360 ​​degrees? Don't you feel pain when you turn your neck in four directions up, down, left, and right?" Take a moment to make an assessment, which determines whether you can continue to ride or stop for help.

Second, some basic first aid matters

Checking your body the first time is the prerequisite for all subsequent follow-ups. For example, if you move your hands and legs to see if your limbs are still attached to your body, are there bones that have pierced the skin and caused bleeding? If you find yourself seriously injured, don't take risks and continue to act alone. Get help quickly. You go to the nearest medical point for medical treatment. (This side also reminds you that although you are alone, you are cool, but you have a higher life price. The tragedy can refer to the recent death of a bike rider alone. For your own safety, you can go hand in hand.) If you check your body, If you can stand up and lift the car, it means that you are not seriously injured. If you can move around, and you can step out of the woods, "This shows that all your joints can still move and bear weight."



Third, concussion

Checking your helmet for obvious damage is a simple and straightforward way to determine if your head is seriously injured. Rose said: "If you remember this law after you fell, it means that you haven't wrestled yet." If you've got a concussion, you'll lose your sense of direction and be confused if you're even where you are now. If you don't know it, then it's OK to have already wrestled. "When you ride a bicycle for a long time, your brain will produce endorphins that make you feel happy, but that doesn't have to be your true feeling. You need to stop and carefully distinguish whether or not it's okay."

Fourth, check the wheel set

If you have determined that there are no major scrapes or bruises, you can check your car next.


Check the bicycle wheel set first. Because at the time of the crash, the wheel set was the first place that was the most directly impacted, and it was also the part that most easily diagnosed the problem. Regardless of how you fall, first check the tire pressure to see if there is a puncture, if the spokes are not broken, then there is no problem with the brakes. These things can be confirmed several times.



Fifth, check other parts

Brakes and shifts are your second place to check. Usually these parts can be forced back into place if they are thrown at different angles, but you have to make sure that they are as tight as they were. Don't ride a ride and pick it up again. Then check the chain, whether it fell between the sprocket and the five-way, there is no broken chain? Finally check the seat cushion, whether it is still honestly placed above the seat tube.


Six, check the frame


Finally, check the frame to see if there are any cracks or scratches. This is particularly important for carbon fiber frames because a small crack is likely to expand into a large crack while you continue to ride, but the aluminum frame or steel frame will not be as serious as the carbon frame.


Seventh, be prepared

Prepare yourself for everything you need before you bike - especially when you and your friends plan an adventure to a place that has never been visited before. Remember to bring basic riding related tools - multi-function toolbox, linker, spare tube, mini pump, at least some basic first aid supplies, such as a bag of Bondi or gauze, after the fall, the case In the case of a fracture, it is possible to fix the splint and then bandage the wound.
