In case of heavy rain
How to drive safely?
Drive at a reduced speed and brake slowly when braking
When the vehicle is driving on a waterlogged road, the adhesion between the tires and the ground is reduced, and it is easy to slip, so it is necessary to reduce the speed of the vehicle and improve the handling of the vehicle.
▲ The road was slippery in the rain, and the two cars slid out of control one after another at the bend of the bridge
When braking is required, the driver should brake slowly. Special attention should be paid here: if the vehicle slips out of control during braking, the brakes should be released, the steering wheel should be turned slightly in the direction of offset, and then the brakes should be lightly stepped on after the direction of the body is corrected, and the brakes should be braked slowly.
Make sure you have a clear line of sight and use the lights correctly
Heavy rain causes visibility to be reduced, so drivers should turn on the wipers in time and adjust the wiper speed according to the amount of rain to keep a clear line of sight.
In addition to the rain will affect the line of sight, the dark sky also greatly affects the line of sight, the driver should use the lights according to the actual situation, let himself see the road conditions, but also improve the visibility of the vehicle, so that the surrounding vehicles can see themselves.
(1) When the visibility is less than 200 meters, turn on the fog lights, low beam lights, marker lights and front and rear position lights;
(2) When the visibility is less than 100 meters, turn on the fog lights, low beam lights, marker lights, front and rear position lights and hazard warning flashers;
(3) When the visibility is less than 50 meters, turn on the fog lights, low beam lights, marker lights, front and rear position lights and hazard warning flashers.
Avoid puddles and pass slowly
In the case of a small puddle of water in the middle of the road, the driver should try to avoid it as much as possible, but it is necessary to prevent accidents caused by emergency avoidance. If the puddle is deep, the vehicle may have a greater impact on the tires quickly, and there may be a risk of puncture, so it is necessary to control the speed of the vehicle and pass slowly at a constant speed.
What to do after wading through the water
The road surface is prone to water accumulation in rainstorm weather, and when the water exceeds a certain depth, blind wading can easily cause vehicle damage.
❖ Observe the depth of stagnant water
When encountering a waterlogged road section, be sure to observe before passing carefully. In general, it can be passed when the height of the water is less than half of the tire. When passing, you should drive in low gear, drive slowly at a constant speed, stabilize the throttle, and do not stop, change gears or turn sharply in the middle of the road. If the height of the water exceeds the center line of the tire, you should choose another route to detour and do not force it through.
❖ Turn on the wipers
When a vehicle wades through water, a large splash of water may cover the front windshield, so the windshield wiper needs to be turned on when the vehicle wades through the water.
❖ Steady throttle and pass at a constant speed in low gear
Try not to overtake on waterlogged roads and not get too close to the vehicle in front. In particular, if the vehicle in front is a large vehicle, the splash caused by entering the waterlogged road section is easy to splash on the windshield of the vehicle behind it, affecting the line of sight.
