Talking about Rescue of Highway Traffic Accidents

With the rapid development of economic construction, the links between regions have become more frequent. This poses a higher requirement for all aspects of China’s construction. In particular, the transportation industry will inevitably have traffic accidents and highway traffic accidents are the most common. Land traffic accidents that cause the highest number of casualties are particularly serious in areas where high-speed roads or high-grade highways pass through. It is of great significance to study and master treatment measures to improve the rescue capabilities of fire-fighting forces. Here, I’ll talk about their rescue efforts. Features.

First, the characteristics of highway traffic accidents

( a ) The frequency of vehicle accidents is high. Affected by road conditions, traffic conditions, and natural and human factors, road traffic accidents can happen anywhere, anytime. According to relevant data, there are about 300,000 traffic accidents in our country each year , with an average of about 800 daily .

( b ) Vehicles collided, causing heavy casualties. Traffic accidents on high-speed roads or on high-grade roads often cause head-to-tail collisions of several or even hundreds of vehicles, directly causing casualties to drivers and passengers. If an accident occurs after the car runs out of control, it will rush out of the roadbed, break into rivers or cliffs, and increase the possibility of group-dead-group injuries, which will directly cause serious traffic accidents.

( 3 ) After a vehicle accident, it is easy to cause secondary disasters. Traffic accidents caused by automobile collisions are often accompanied by fire accidents; if accidents occur in vehicles loaded with dangerous chemicals, they may lead to the leakage of a large number of toxic and hazardous substances, which can cause a large number of casualties and seriously pollute the ecological environment. Increased risk.

( 4 ) Vehicles are seriously damaged and rescue work is difficult. Accidents can cause serious damage or deformation of vehicles, falling into valleys, cliffs, and explosions and dangerous goods. The technical requirements for rescue are high and various technologies are required to implement rescue operations.

( 5 ) Social influence and harm are great. Traffic accidents often cause serious injuries to people, serious injuries, disability, and even death. To cause a shadow to the family, often a traffic accident can become a nightmare for several families.

Rescue procedures and measures

( a ) Ask the insider. Correspondents should ask for the time, location, casualties, and other relevant information that need to be known when they receive an alert, and promptly notify the public security, medical aid and other departments to come to the scene to assist the rescue.

( b ) Reconnaissance and detection. After the firefighters arrive at the scene of the accident, they should immediately search for distressed and stranded persons on the basis of the idea of ​​saving the first person; use the detection equipment to determine the concentration and diffusion range of chemical dangerous goods as required.

(C) the establishment of alert. Block the traffic on the accident road section, isolate the crowd, and forbid the irrelevant vehicles and personnel from entering the accident site. If the accident causes the leakage of chemical dangerous goods, the warning scope should be expanded as needed. At the same time notify the relevant units to require special technical personnel to guide the scene.

( D ) on-site lifesaving insurance.

1 , first use the vehicle traction, hydraulic cutting, expansion and other rescue tools to demolish the deformation of the car shell, while actively soothe the mood of trapped people, and according to need to mobilize large traction lifting vehicles on the scene to assist the rescue; when the body is broken, Water gun cover should be used to prevent metal from colliding with sparks, causing oil vapor explosion and causing fire.

2. Use a water gun to cool the fuel tank of the accident vehicle and cover the leaked fuel on the ground with foam to eliminate the potential danger and provide favorable conditions for the rescue work.

3. For accident secondary chemical accidents, firefighters should promptly close the valve to cut off sources, plug, dilute and detoxify, embankment diversion and other measures to effectively control the occurrence of larger accidents and dispose of accidents according to the nature of chemical dangerous goods.

( five ) on-site first aid. First-aid on-site emergency treatment for critically ill and critically injured persons was conducted. After initial treatment, ambulances or on-site vehicles were immediately transferred to the hospital for treatment.

( six ) site clean up. When the rescue work is completed, the site should be cleaned up, the traffic should be restored as soon as possible, and the transfer should be completed and evacuated safely.

Third, the rescue operation requirements

( 1 ) The commanders and fighters should establish the first combat guiding ideology for saving people, quickly and accurately determine the disaster situation, grasp the superior's intentions, quickly determine the determination, and promptly organize and direct the implementation. They should maximally save lives and send them to the hospital for treatment.

( 2 ) When the personnel in distress do not search, do not use large-scale equipment, such as cranes, bulldozers, etc., to pull and pull the accident vehicles. During the demolition process, the trapped personnel should be protected from secondary injuries, for example, the expansion location is not properly selected. Sparks are generated during cutting.

( 3 ) When fire rescue vehicles cannot reach the scene of the accident, rescue workers can carry light rescue, rescue, lifting and other equipment to the scene of the accident for rescue. Particular attention should be paid to the choice of lanes for traffic jams.

(d) If it is caused by flammable liquids or gas tanker accidents, it is necessary to notice the wind direction discrimination before the field and find a good parking position. And use the flowering water gun to cover the accident.

( 5 ) To facilitate the removal of the accident vehicles, we must try our best to choose convenient channels. We can flexibly apply various methods to save people according to the actual conditions on the site. If the person is stuck in a small space, the seat can be released; if the person's lateral space is unable or difficult to move, he can enter the rear seat to rescue him from behind.

(6) After the accident has been handled, disarm and restore traffic as soon as possible.
