[Maintenance] The Rainy Season Is Coming! Learning These Tricks Can Keep You Away From Accidents!
Entering May, Temperatures In Many Parts Of The Country Began To Rise, Accompanied By The Arrival Of Summer Heat Waves And Abundant Rainfall. Driving In The Rain Has A Significant Impact On Our Safety. Kaili Zhuanqi Provides Several Tips For Driving In Rainy Weather, Which Card Enthusiasts Must Remember!
1. Control The Distance And Speed Between Vehicles
Everyone Knows That Slippery Roads And Reduced Visibility On Rainy Days. And What Problems Will Arise From This? The Most Important Things Are Two: 1. The Braking Distance Will Become Longer; 2. The Obstacles Ahead Are Harder To Detect. The Best Solution To These Two Problems Is To Drive Slowly And Maintain A Safe Distance Between Vehicles. In This Way, Giving Oneself Enough Time To React Allows The Vehicle To Brake Slowly, Reducing The Probability Of Skidding And Naturally Reducing Accidents.
2. Reasonable Use Of Windshield Wipers
Everyone Knows That When It Rains, You Need To Turn On The Wipers. But For Some Reason, There Are Always People Who Set The Wiper Speed To The Slowest During Heavy Rain. Is This Reluctance? Adjusting The Wiper Speed Appropriately To Ensure Clear Visibility Can Effectively Reduce The Occurrence Of Accidents. Meanwhile, If You Have The Energy To Apply A Layer Of Water Repellent (Rain Enemy) On The Windshield, It Is Also A Good Choice.
3. Be Careful Of Puddles
What Is The Scariest Thing About Rainy Days? The Old Company Has The Opportunity To Tell You That It Is The Puddle That Appeared Earlier. Because If You Don't Get Off The Car And Look, You'll Never Know Whether The Puddle Is A Deep And Bottomless Pit Or A Flat Road Surface. For The Large Puddle Ahead, I Suggest Getting Off The Car And Checking To Ensure There Are No Issues Before Passing Through.
4. Be Careful Of 'double Flashing'
During Heavy Rain, Many People Like To Drive With Dual Flashing Lights. But This May Cause A Problem, That Is, If There Is Really A Car In Front With A Malfunction, It Will Flash And Stop On The Roadside, And You Will Mistake It For A Normal Driving Car. When You Discover It, It Is Already Too Late. Although This Is A Highly Unlikely Event, It's Okay To Be Cautious When Encountering Someone Who Triggers A Double Flash.
5. Glass Is Foggy, Don't Wipe It Blindly
On Rainy Days, Car Windows And Mirrors Are Prone To Fogging Up, And Many Cardholders Like To Use Towels To Wipe Them. This Not Only Distracts One's Attention, But Also Easily Leads To Misoperation And Cannot Effectively Defog. At This Point, Using The Vehicle's Windshield To Defog Can Safely Solve The Problem.
6. Reasonably Utilize Lighting
In The Implementation Regulations Of The Road Safety Law, It Is Stipulated That:
① If The Visibility Is Below 200 Meters, Turn On Fog Lights, Low Beams, Clearance Lights, And Front And Rear Position Lights;
② When The Visibility Is Below 100 Meters, Turn On Fog Lights, Low Beams, Clearance Lights, Front And Rear Position Lights, And Double Flash;
③ If The Visibility Is Below 50 Meters, Turn On Fog Lights, Low Beams, Clearance Lights, Front And Rear Position Lights, And Double Flashing. The Vehicle Speed Should Not Exceed 20km/h, And Exit The Highway As Soon As Possible From The Nearest Exit.
There Is A Lot Of Rain In Summer, So It Is Important To Drive Safely. Here, Kaili Zhuanqi Wishes All Cardholders A Safe Journey On The Road!
