Obstructed vision on rainy days can easily lead to traffic accidents, so it is very important to maintain a good vision.

Open the wiper and clean up the raindrops in time;

When the weather is dark, turn on the low beam and fog lights, and the indicator lights;

If there is fog on the glass, the line of sight is obstructed, and the air conditioner should be turned on in time to blow away the fog;

03

Slow down and drive cautiously

"Ten accidents, nine fast", the road is slippery on rainy days, and it is even more important to drive cautiously.

Reduce the speed of the car and maintain a safe distance;

Drive cautiously and always pay attention to the road surface conditions, especially in the sections with many pedestrians;

Adjust the speed in time according to the road conditions, and control the speed of the unfamiliar road conditions;

Maintain a distance from larger vehicles;

Do not let large cars block the line of sight in front of you for a long time;

Pay attention to the blind spots of large vehicles to avoid danger;

Stay away from large vehicles and avoid rainwater splashed by large vehicles from interfering with driving;

Do not blindly follow, large cars can pass through the waterlogged section, small cars may not be able to pass smoothly.

05

Prevent wheels from sliding sideways

The wet and slippery road surface on rainy days makes driving easy to be dangerous, and it is necessary to prevent the wheels from sliding.

Stabilize the steering wheel, do not panic, and hold the steering wheel with your hands balanced;

If the rain is too heavy, don't risk driving;

Choose a safe section of the road or service area to rest, and then drive after the rain is small;

If the doors and windows cannot be opened and you are trapped in the car, you can choose to escape through the window. Use sharp objects to smash the side windows or skylights to escape, and the focus point should be as close as possible to the four corners of the glass, and the probability of success is high.
