Precautions for driving in rainy weather
Slow down when the road is slippery in the rain
When driving in rainy weather, even the best performing cars can cause "hydroplaning", and in this state
The friction between the tires and the road surface is lost, making it difficult for the car to control
and put themselves in danger
How can it be prevented?
1. Reduce the speed of the vehicle. As long as you drive in rainy weather, you must reduce your speed, once the speed is faster, the greater the risk of losing control; 2. Avoid emergency braking. Especially after a "hydroplaning", many drivers slam on the brakes due to nervousness. The correct way is: try to control the speed of the car, slowly lift the accelerator pedal, hold the direction, and wait for the speed to slow down; 3. Expand the distance between vehicles. Since it is easy to slide sideways and the braking distance becomes longer in rainy weather, do not drive side by side with other vehicles, and at the same time increase the distance between the front and rear vehicles.
Use lights properly
Rainy weather rational ground use light
in order to effectively guarantee their own car
Seen by other vehicles
How to use lights correctly?
1. When the visibility is less than 200 meters, turn on the fog lights, low beams, marker lights and front and rear position lights, the speed shall not exceed 60 kilometers per hour, and keep a distance of more than 100 meters from the vehicle in front of the same lane;
2. When the visibility is less than 100 meters, turn on the fog lights, low beams, marker lights, front and rear position lights and hazard warning flashing lights, the speed shall not exceed 40 kilometers per hour, and keep a distance of more than 50 meters from the front car in the same lane;
3. When the visibility is less than 50 meters, turn on the fog lights, low beams, marker lights, front and rear position lights and hazard warning flashing lights, the speed shall not exceed 20 kilometers per hour, and leave the highway as soon as possible from the nearest exit.
Maintain a clear field of vision
Obstructed view in rainy weather
It is easy to cause traffic accidents
It is very important to maintain a clear field of vision
What should I do?
1. Turn on the wipers and clean up the raindrops in time;
2. When the weather is dark, turn on the low beams, fog lights and marker lights;
3. If there is fog on the glass that obstructs the line of sight, turn on the air conditioner in time to blow away the fog;
4. Keep the rearview mirror clear, turn on the heating function of the rearview mirror or add plastic sheets to cover the rain;
5. Pay attention to the surrounding road conditions and drive cautiously.
