During the Spring Festival

Rainy days affect traffic travel

Especially for friends who drive

There are often difficulties, such as

Passing through the waterlogged section, you feel the vehicle floating on the water

I can't judge the depth of the water, I don't know if I should pass it

Today, Shu Huang will come to tell you about it

Wading through the water on a rainy day

01

"Light work" on the water

Speed control and anti-"water slip"

The so-called "water slip" phenomenon is that when the car is driving at high speed on the waterlogged road on a rainy day, the water storage between the tire and the road surface cannot be excluded, and the pressure of the water makes the tire float, forming the phenomenon of the car sliding on the waterlogged road.

In this state

Friction is lost between the tire and the road surface

This puts the car in danger by making it difficult to control

On the highway on a rainy day

Even the best performing cars

"Water skiing" can occur

How to avoid "water skiing" when driving at high speed

Or reduce the risk of runaway?

Here's the point

Reduce the speed

Driving on a rainy day, you must reduce the speed, which is a basic common sense. Because of the occurrence of water skids, the faster the speed, the greater the risk of losing control.

This proportional relationship also means that lower speeds will greatly reduce the severity of the consequences. At lower speeds, even if the side swing of the front of the car is felt, as long as the steering wheel is stabilized, the vehicle is generally controllable and will not cause serious consequences.

Avoid emergency braking

After water skids, avoid emergency braking due to tension, which increases the risk of the vehicle getting out of control.

The correct approach is to try to control the speed of the car, do not slam on the brakes, slowly lift the accelerator pedal, try to hold the direction, and when the speed of the car is reduced, the water skid will naturally disappear.

In addition, driving on rainy days should be

Avoid overtaking as much as possible

Even if you want to overtake, you need to observe the road conditions in advance

Make sure to overtake on dry roads

Otherwise, it will suddenly encounter standing water when accelerating

The consequences will be unimaginable

In addition to paying attention to controlling the speed of the car

You also have to make reasonable use of lighting

02

"Clairvoyance" in the rain

Use lights wisely

The difficulty of driving on rainy days is that rain will affect the line of sight, rain will affect hearing, and the road surface is easy to accumulate water on rainy days, and the friction is reduced, affecting braking. Especially at night, the light reflected by the rain will make the driver dizzy, which will greatly affect the line of sight. Reasonable use of lights on rainy days can effectively ensure that your car is seen by other vehicles!

Special reminder, driving on the highway on rainy days

Don't abuse the double flash!

Q

Double flash, fog lights or high beams?

(1) When the visibility is less than 200 meters, turn on the fog lights, low beam lights, contour lights and front and rear position lights, and the speed of the vehicle shall not exceed 60 kilometers per hour, and maintain a distance of more than 100 meters from the car in front of the same lane;

(2) When the visibility is less than 100 meters, turn on fog lights, low beam lights, contour lights, front and rear position lights and hazard alarm flash lights, the speed of the vehicle shall not exceed 40 kilometers per hour, and the distance from the car in front of the same lane shall be more than 50 meters;

(3) When the visibility is less than 50 meters, turn on the fog lights, low beam lights, contour lights, front and rear position lights and hazard warning flash lights, the speed of the vehicle shall not exceed 20 kilometers per hour, and drive away from the highway as soon as possible from the nearest exit.

Driving on rainy days

Qingyuan traffic police remind drivers to remember the six-character recipe
