Eight precautions for driving in rainy days
Maintain a good field of vision
Turn on the wipers in time . When the weather is dark, you should also turn on the low beam and anti-fog. light . If there is frost on the front windshield, you need to turn on the air conditioner and blow the cold air into the front windshield; if there is frost on the rear windshield, you need to turn on the rear windshield heater to eliminate the frost as soon as possible to avoid seeing it. I don't know the vehicle behind me.
Prevent wheel sideslip
When driving in the rain, "lubricant" is formed between the rainwater on the road and the tires, which makes the car's braking performance worse and prone to sideslip. Therefore, the driver should hold the steering wheel with both hands in balance and keep driving in a straight line and at low speed. When turning is required, the driver should apply the brakes slowly to prevent the tires from locking up and causing the vehicle to slide sideways.
Drive slowly in low speed
Experienced drivers all know that when driving in the rain, try to use second or third gear. If it is an automatic car, the speed should not exceed 30 kilometers or 40 kilometers per hour. Always pay attention to the distance between the front and rear vehicles and your own car, and do this in advance Be mentally prepared to take various emergency measures. When you need to stop, try to slow down and brake lightly about 100 meters in advance so that cars coming from behind have enough emergency preparation time.
Prevent the car from getting trapped by wading
When the car passes through a road with accumulated water or under an overpass or a deep tunnel, etc., the vehicle should first stop and check the depth of the water. The water depth exceeds the exhaust pipe and can easily cause the vehicle to stall; the water depth More than bumper , easy to get water. Do not cross ditches or puddles at high speed. This will cause splashing, which will increase the actual wading depth and easily cause water to enter the engine.
Never start the vehicle again after shutting down the engine.
Once the engine is filled with water and stalls, never start the vehicle again. You should leave the vehicle where it is and wait to be towed away. The most feared thing when the car is running is the inhalation of water into the combustion chamber, because once water enters the combustion chamber, due to the incompressibility of water, it will cause fatal hazards such as valve lifting or piston connecting rod lifting during engine operation.
Pay attention to following cars
Especially large cars, do not follow too close. Firstly, it will block the line of sight; secondly, a small car may not be able to pass through the accumulated water that a large car can pass. Moreover, a large car can easily splash water, causing damage to the small car.
Pay attention to pedestrians
Because pedestrians hold umbrellas in the rain and cyclists wear ponchos , their sight, hearing, reaction, etc. are restricted. Sometimes they make sharp turns in order to cross the road, often panicking when vehicles approach and slip. , catching the driver off guard. When encountering this situation, the driver should slow down, patiently give way, and choose a safe place to park if necessary, and must not rush impatiently with pedestrians and bicycles.
Turn on the car lights promptly
When there is heavy rain and the visibility is extremely low, you should turn on the headlights, position lights and rear position lights, and drive the vehicle off the road or park in a safe place.
Finally, I would like to remind you
Driving in rainy days
Drivers should always tighten the safety string
Always remember
"Reduce speed, control distance and brighten tail"
