Reporter experience today's 521 Road

Speed ​​limit, smooth driving

On the evening of June 14, during the peak of get off work, the reporter took a bus to experience a bus 521.

At 18:12, the car departed from the Phoenix Mountain parking lot in Wuchang. At 19:35, the car arrived at the end of Guanshan Avenue. The whole journey is 28 stations, about 18 kilometers, and it takes 74 minutes.

Along the way, it is reminded that the safe car radio of driving is constantly reminding: "The vehicle starts, please pay attention to safety; please not walk in the carriage; please walk slowly when you go to the intersection of the traffic, the speed limit is 30 yards ..."

The reporter noticed that many passengers are dominated by the elderly who are not in a hurry. From beginning to end, the carriage has empty seats. A few young passengers play their mobile phones leisurely. It is understood that since the opening of Metro Line 2, the full scene of 521 has been gone.

"As long as the speed, the red light will flash here. The speed of over 8 seconds. The background system will judge illegal. The fine of 300 yuan is a trivial matter and will be suspended for a week ..." Wang Ping, a 53 -year -old driver, pointed to the camera and medium on the head of his head. The platform display screen tells reporters that the current 521 road is like other bus, and the speed limit of the entrance station is 20 kilometers per hour. The speed limit is implemented on the road. The intersection speed limit is 30 kilometers per hour. The main road cannot exceed 46 kilometers per hour.

"Now if you are in a hurry, I suggest you take a subway or an online car ..." said Duan Gongqing, a duty station duty on the 521st road.

"How fast is the speed of bus 521 in the year?" On June 15th, in the face of reporters' visits and pursuit, some old drivers who drove bus 521 of the year were generally embarrassed, but they all said: "In fact, rumors on the Internet are some rumors, some of them, some of them are some rumors on the Internet. Exaggerated! "

Wang Ping, who is 18 years old, is one of the few "veterans" left in the line. He told reporters that the rumors of 521 are "fast" in the world. In fact, it is around 2000, and there are five or six years before and after. Later, with the implementation of unmanned tickets, the driver could not be busy, and the speed of the vehicle has been declining.

"In the past, there were few traffic lights on Wudu Road, and there were no private cars, the speed of the bus was easy to mention!" Wang Ping explained.

Duan Gongqing, a webmaster on duty 521, introduced that 521 is one of the second batch of special cars in Wuhan City. It was founded in 1991 and has been 31 years. He believes that online rumors 521 are fast, and it is inseparable from its specific historical background -in the 1990s, there were many universities and institutions on both sides of Wuchang Road in Wuchang Wuling Road. A batch of special cars were on the horse. "In addition to the sequence of the departure at that time, Dorra runs very well ..."

The 53 -year -old Hua Haifeng had drove 521. He revealed that in fact, the guys who drove at that time were generally solid. "Learn driving in 1 year, learn to repair for 1 year, and you need to learn for 3 months. There are 8 teachers and brothers in the same car. The rotation of the car reversing does not exceed 3 cm." "Also, 15 meters long, 15 meters long The train (two sections of the "wind piano hinge" public vapor) poured the rail on the rail, and the railway was 15 cm wide. Even if it was not qualified, it was difficult to imagine now ... "Hua Haifeng said.

Driver is not compared with the speed change to zero illegal law

Wang Ping, a 53 -year -old driver, lamented: More than 20 years ago, it was desolate after passing Guangbutun.

"Now driving, you have to follow the order to enter the station in turn. Even if there is no one, you have to stop for 10 seconds every station ..." Wang Ping said that today's bus 521, the drivers are pursuing the steady driving. "It is the consensus between me and colleagues to send passengers to destinations safely and pursue zero traffic violations."

In recent years, the subway has gradually become the main transportation of public travel in citizens. The degree of refined urban development has deepened, and the number of traffic lights has also increased.

Bus 521 has fallen, and the quality of service has risen.

On the 15th, the reporter saw in the dispatching room 521: LCD TVs on the wall kept scrolling to play accident cases, and an intelligent assessment instrument was also placed indoors. Before the driver 521, the 521 driver must measure blood pressure, blow gas to check the alcohol content. Only when the safe driving answer exceeds 80 points, it is allowed to get in the car after passing.

The Municipal Public Transport Group Optics Valley Branch has specially purchased three valuable simulation cockpits. Through 360 -degree panoramic LCD screens and 3D seats, it simulates the hazard of speeding driving, thereby waking the drivers to control the brakes and throttle in their hands.

"You see, green is on the way, purple entering the station, yellow is a warning. Now every car is driving on the road, it is clear at a glance ..." Duan Gongqing told reporters that technical defense plus consciousness, now the driver's traffic violations are rare once a month. Not to mention speeding.

"In the past, the driver had to run 5 times a day. Now there are many drivers in the car. Each person only runs 3 times a day, and the break is guaranteed." Duan Gongqing introduced that for the driver, now the labor intensity is greatly reduced, the management model is even more even moreHumanize.Now the driver's evaluation is compared to service quality and zero traffic violations.During the reporter's visit, the driver An Yi picked up a bag of snacks and handed over to the dispatch room.Pick up the items and pick up the gold, the elderly in the car ... Now, these "handles" in ordinary work have become the most proud of bus drivers 521.
