Don't be alarmed even after passing the typhoon.
I think that many people use cars as a means of transportation, such as when they come home with Obon. Do not be alarmed not only when the typhoon is approaching, but also after the typhoon has passed.
Refrain from driving when approaching typhoon
First of all, it is very dangerous to drive a car in the event of a typhoon approaching, strong winds or heavy rain. According to the JAF = Japan Automobile Federation, while driving a car, things that are blown by the wind hit the window glass and break, causing traffic accidents and serious injury.
Relief request first place is “punk”
According to JAF, “tyre puncture” is the most common request for car rescue from typhoons. It is said that there are many cases where punctures occur when a roof, a part of the outer wall, a tree branch, etc., are scattered on the road due to strong winds caused by a typhoon and the car runs on it.
In September of last year, Typhoon No. 21, which caused major damage mainly in Kinki, received a series of tire puncture relief requests for three days from September 4th to 6th before the typhoon approached and passed, only within Osaka Prefecture. It means that there were 782 cases.
Be aware of road conditions even after passing the typhoon
Be careful when driving a car even after the typhoon has passed. In some cases, things that have been blown by strong winds are not removed and scattered on the road.
If you hit a large object, it will lead to a traffic accident, and even a small object will easily puncture if you step on it with a tire. Please check the road conditions carefully when driving.
