What should I pay attention to when driving on the highway in rainy days?

At present, the rapid development of national expressways has also triggered a craze in go on road trip. Many people prefer to drive their own cars and take their families around without snapping up high-speed rail tickets and air tickets from various channels. I don't know if you have such an experience when driving on the expressway: it was sunny all the way ahead, and it suddenly rained cats and dogs after passing a hill or tunnel! In such a changeable day, most drivers still panic, which tests the psychological quality of drivers and, of course, driving skills.

But I am not afraid to do these things, even on the highway in the rainstorm.

1, it gets dark every day when it rains heavily, and the sight becomes worse. Turn on the light.

Generally speaking, heavy rain will be accompanied by dark clouds, so the external environment will be very dark. Therefore, it is necessary to turn on the front and rear fog lights, including headlights and width indicators, in order to get the maximum driving vision, let other vehicles feel your presence, avoid the possibility of rear-end collision and avoid unnecessary accidents. Minimize the danger as much as possible. At the same time, when it rains heavily, be sure to hold the steering wheel tightly and keep the distance between the front and rear cars. It is best not to turn on double flashing in non-emergency situations. Remember not to overtake at this time! It is better to keep a normal driving distance than to overtake. On rainy days, I am afraid of getting on the highway. Because the friction is reduced due to the rain, it is easy to produce "water slip", and it is best to keep the speed at about 80 km/h, which not only protects yourself but also protects others!

2. Keep a good view.

When driving on the road in rainy days, turn on the wiper in time. If there is frost on the front windshield, turn on the air conditioner and blow it on the front windshield. If there is frost on the rear windshield, turn on the rear windshield heater to eliminate the frost as soon as possible, so as not to see the vehicles behind you clearly. When replacing the wiper, it is recommended to replace the boneless wiper, because the wiping effect of the boneless wiper is much stronger than that of the boneless wiper, and it is more suitable for the glass surface. The water stains on the front windshield can be cleaned in one turn, but the boneless wiper needs to be scraped several times. Of course, the price of boneless wiper is much more expensive than that of boneless wiper.

Don't brake suddenly.

During the rainstorm, try to drive in the middle of the road and keep the wheels turning forward at any time to avoid the possibility of side collision with other vehicles, and there is also room for driving to avoid accidents. The key is never to brake suddenly when the vehicle is driving. The road is slippery in rainy days, and sudden braking is likely to cause the vehicle to overturn! This is extremely dangerous!

4. Leave the expressway as soon as possible or rest in the service area.

In case of sudden stormy weather, it is best to leave the expressway as soon as possible, or choose to adjust in the service area to avoid fatigue driving. Even if we are in a hurry, we don't have to fight for the moment and put ourselves in danger. After all, sometimes slowing down is not necessarily a bad thing. This is for our own driving safety, and we can't ignore our personal safety because we are in a hurry! After all, life is safer than ever.

Generally speaking, driving on the highway should not be sloppy at all. When encountering heavy rain on the expressway, the most important thing is to protect the driver's vision and reduce the speed. The speed of a day should not be too low, otherwise it is easy to have an accident.
