I believe that many partners should have the same experience, the car driving on the highway at night, but can only see the blackness of black paint around the piece, in addition to car headlights and reflective road signs, basically can not see any other bright light, people blame no sense of security. Why no street lights on the highway it? There is not a street light would be more safe?

In fact, in general, in addition to important general highway bridge and tunnel, are not installed lights. Here Konishi come to you further analysis freeway Why not install lights.

Higher safety factor highway

Parents who have seen the night of pedestrians and non-motorized vehicles coming and going like that in the city streets? No! Because the highway is not allowed on pedestrians and non-motorized vehicles allowed motorcycles, tractors, tricycle, not 80 yards 15 seconds on the car is not on.

Not to install lights vehicle safety and convenience (because car headlights), but for non-motorized vehicles and pedestrians safe and convenient. The service functions of the different highways and urban roads, urban roads not only vehicle traffic and non-motor vehicles, pedestrians intensive, so there are street lights; outer city highway road connecting city to city, town and country, few non-machine moving vehicles and pedestrians. Thus, the general highway no street lights.

In addition, the highway pavement is very smooth, no obvious pits, better road holding, higher safety factor.


Reflective pavement markers meet demand

Installation of street lights on the highway, the driver is not safer and more convenient? The answer is no, oh.

Street lighting is discontinuous, uneven. The driver of the vehicle at high speed, this alternating light and dark cause visual error (illusion), very dangerous. In addition, it will soon lead to eyestrain. And the degree of poor street lighting, and is scattered light, make long-distance driving in blinding the driver, causing the driver's safety problems.

That no street lights, the driver on the highway at night how to do?

When there is insufficient external lighting, vehicle headlights can provide more security lighting for the driver. Since there is no barrier to the car, the high beam at night can start with (this must be very understanding friend to drive). That is why some drivers also like even when driving on city streets brightly lit open headlight (high beam) the reason (of course, this is bad driving habits).

Vehicle driving at night, perfect road signs and reflectors to fully meet the needs. At night, under strong illumination of headlights, reflective film will be light on traffic signs directional reflector to illuminate the road and traffic signs can be clearly reflected to the driver's eyes, enough to complete the function of the direction of the boot.

Not low cost, trouble management

Our high mileage has more than one hundred thousand kilometers, all sections installed street, will cost a small fortune. And random freeway traffic flow line is too strong, a small amount of car traffic across the board in order to install lights, will inevitably cause a huge waste of energy. In addition, the provincial highway through the state, each sub-section of the power supply and management is a difficult problem.

To sum up, install street lights on the highway is not necessarily scientific, nor energy efficiency. Although highway safety factor is high, with parents who still need to be careful at night, oh.
