Pay attention to driving safety during self-driving tours, arrange rest time reasonably, and abide by traffic rules. 3. Prepare warm and rainproof equipment, the weather in the mountains changes quickly, and the temperature difference between morning and evening is large. 4. Carry enough drinking water and snacks, as physical exertion is high when playing in the mountains, and energy should be replenished in time. 5. Respect local culture and ecological environment, do not litter, protect natural resources.
