Driving in Rain
Rain and wet roads can make driving dangerous. Here are a few things to consider when driving in the rain :
• Slow down and ensure more distance between you and other vehicles.
• Stay toward the middle lanes as water tends to pool in the outside lanes.
• Keep your windshield wiping equipment in good condition.Replace your windshield wiper blades if necesaary.
• Be sure your tires are in good condition to avoid any skidding during quick stop on wet pavement.
• Turn on your headlights to make it easier for others to see you.
• If you must go through puddles, try to drive through them slowly.
• If brakes are wet, apply them lightly while driving until normal braking operation returns. |
