Driving tips for wet weather.
Dispatcher Files
Driving in the rain can be both scary and dangerous, and it is important to take wet weather seriously when you are on the road. There are lots of things you can do to make driving in the rain safer by being prepared and by making sure your car is maintained so that you can ensure clear visibility. But most importantly, you have to drive according to the conditions, and adjust a few of your habits to avoid sliding, skidding, or being involved in a collision.
- Keep your windows clean and clear.
- Clean the inside and outside of the windows regularly to remove dirt, dust, mud, smoke, fingerprints, grime, and other materials.
- If your windows fog up, turn on the air conditioning or cold air in the car and aim the vents at the windows. Turn on the rear defroster, and open the windows if necessary, to increase the airflow.
- Maintain your lights, checking regularly to make sure none of your lights have burnt out. Replace dead lights immediately. This includes headlights, brake lights, turn signals, taillights, and running lights.
- Keep the light covers on your car clean so that dust and dirt do not reduce their efficacy.
- Maintain your tyres. Tyre tread is what allows your tyres to have grip on the road, which is why it is so dangerous to drive with smooth tyres.
