Shijiazhuang, April 1st, China News Service (Li Yang Yu Shiqiang) On the 1st, the Traffic Management Bureau of the Public Security Department of Hebei Province said that the Qingming Festival holiday is approaching and the traffic safety risk is increasing.

There is a large demand for comprehensive resumption of labor and product flows in all walks of life, and both passenger and cargo transportation flows have increased. Freight is more frequent, and short- and medium-distance trips of private cars are intertwined with freight, and the province's road traffic flow will resume or even exceed the previous Qingming small holiday. In this regard, travel safety warnings are issued to remind drivers to reasonably arrange travel, drive cautiously, and prevent traffic violations.
