Driving Safety Tips Rainy Season

Driving Safety Tips - Rainy Season
  • First and foremost: slow down! It takes longer to stop or adjust in wet weather
  •  Stay toward the middle lanes - water tends to pool in the outer lanes
  •  Drive on the tracks of a vehicle ahead of you
  •  Don't follow large trucks or buses too closely. Their tiers splash water that ultimately obstructs
  • your vision
  •  Be more alert . Watch out for brake lights in front of you
  •  Turn your headlights on even in a light rain, or in gloomy, foggy or overcast conditions
  •  Replace old or brittle wipers
  •  Avoid off-road driving
  •  Never drive beyond the limits of visibility
  •  Never drive through moving water if you can't see the ground through it; your car could be
  • swept off the road
  •  When driving through a puddle of uncertain depth, go slow. If it's deeper than the bottom of
  • your doors, turn around and find another route
  •  If possible, stay off the road during heavy thunderstorms
  •  If possible, go for Car Pool approach
  •  Always stay in touch with Weather page / radio channel / news bulletin
