Daily Brief:Safe Driving in Rainy Weather

Core Risk Tips

Rainy weather leads to slippery roads, more potholes, reduced visibility, and road oil easily floating on the surface. Braking distances increase, with a significant rise in the risks of skidding and hydroplaning. Nearly half of weather-related traffic accidents are caused by rain.

Vehicle Inspection Points

Thoroughly inspect vehicle equipment before departure to ensure windshield wipers, headlights, taillights, and brake systems are in optimal condition. Focus on checking tire tread depth and air pressure; high-quality tires are recommended to enhance traction.

Driving Operation Specifications

Maintain a safe distance from other vehicles, avoid following too closely, and especially keep away from large vehicles to prevent water spray from blocking visibility. Slow down, flexibly adjust speed according to road conditions, and reserve sufficient braking distance. Keep a firm grip on the steering wheel throughout the journey, focus on the road, turn on low-beam headlights, and use windshield wipers in a timely manner. Avoid waterlogged roads; if hydroplaning occurs, do not brake suddenly or turn the steering wheel. Instead, release the accelerator and keep the vehicle straight.

Special Situation Handling

Turn on emergency lights immediately in case of a sudden accident. Pay attention to pedestrians and cyclists on the road, who are more likely to lose control in rainy weather, and anticipate risks in advance.
