What should you do if your car breaks down on the freeway? Well, if you are on your own, you certainly shouldn’t get out of the car and push it forward surrounded by traffic. But that’s what a woman tried to do recently after her car broke down in the fast lane. Needless to say, her efforts were futile. The incident has sparked debate on whether it was the right call, and whether a single person can indeed push a heavy vehicle forward like that.
A woman desperately pushes forward a car, which has broken down on the inside lane of the freeway. She’s trying every way possible.
She uses all her might. She might not be Wonder Woman, but she managed to move it forward a few meters. People were shocked a petite woman such as her would even try.

How can a single person even make it budge? One girl alone can’t do it. And you need someone at the steering wheel.
Member of public
Even on neutral, it’d be hard for a woman to push it.
So what about a big muscular man willing to take on a challenge? We got a 1.6 ton car on neutral to put him to the test.

I just used every ounce of strength I have and I couldn’t make it move even an inch. Let’s see how many women it would take to make it move.
Two young women join forces to get the car moving. But no matter whether it’s possible to make the car move or not, doing so on the freeway is a no-no.

It’s foolish. The inside lane is the fast lane. You’re putting your life at risk.
It’s reckless, super dangerous. I would’ve called a repair shop.

If you force the car forward without putting it on neutral it could damage the transmission or the gears and the drive shaft.

If you can’t get the vehicle out of the lane, turn on the hazard lights and place a warning triangle at least 100m behind the car. All passengers should exit the car and wait for assistance behind the guardrail or in another safe location.
With so many cars passing by at high speeds, it’s best to not take any risks while on the freeway.

有民眾拍下車子在國道內側拋錨,女駕駛居然當起神力女超人,想獨自推車,結果使盡洪荒之力,車子也滑動幾公尺。民眾看到畫面都直呼誇張,一台汽車大約1.6噸重,就連大男生都不容易推動,而且女子在高速公路車流中推車,其實相當危險,萬一其他車輛剎車不及,就可能釀成悲劇。
白色汽車疑似拋錨在國道內側車道,只見車後女子拼命想推車,各種姿勢全都出籠。
使盡洪荒之力,想當神力女超人,但車子只有稍微往前滑動了幾公尺。民眾看到畫面,都直呼一個弱小女子怎麼可能推得動。
[[其他民眾]]
“怎麼可能一個人力就可以推動,如果是一個女生一定推不動啊,而且一定要有人幫你打方向盤”
[[其他民眾]]
“就算要打空檔,一個女生要推動也很難啊”
就連體型高大的男子都推的氣喘吁吁,這台汽車大約1.6噸重,我們找來類似的車型,放了空檔。
[[民視記者 曾虹雯]]
“記者剛剛費了九牛二虎之力,車子完全紋絲不動,我們試試看到底幾個女生可以推動”
兩個女生齊心合力,才終於順利推動車子。但姑且不論多大力氣,才能推車,這樣的行為,就是錯誤示範。
[[其他民眾]]
“很愚蠢的行為,在內側是超車道,你的生命已經受危險了”
[[其他民眾]]
“蠻扯的,就很危險啊,我會先打給認識的保養廠”
[[車商業者 連紹辰]]
“如果不打N檔的情況下,強力去推的話,會造成變速箱,或者一些齒輪傳動軸造成損害”
[[國道警察高雄岡山分隊巡官 周訓丞]]
“若車輛無法滑離車道時,應顯示危險警示燈,並於後方一百公尺以上,擺放故障標誌,人員應盡速下車,至護欄外或安全處所待援”
看看國道上車潮洶湧,一個不小心,可能就釀成悲劇。
