It is said that drivers are most afraid of winter when driving, especially in northern areas where the winter temperature is generally about minus ten degrees, and some are even lower. If the temperature is too low, your car will easily suffer from various problems. In addition, it is prone to rain and snow in winter, and driving on the road is also dangerous. So today the editor will list some issues that you need to pay attention to when driving in winter. Let’s take a look!

1. Pay attention to "ground armor" when driving in rainy and snowy days

Whether you are a friend from the south or the north, if you encounter rainy and snowy weather and the snow accumulation is relatively thick, When driving on the road, you must pay more attention to the phenomenon of ground armor penetration. Ground armor is when snow falls on the ground and freezes immediately. This kind of ground armor is often as hard as stone. If one is not careful, it is likely to cause the car to lose control on the road. In serious cases, it may cause a traffic accident. If you are using an electric vehicle, you must also be careful, otherwise you may trip over it. Therefore, car owners must hold the steering wheel tightly when driving in rain or snow, and must not drive too fast. They must drive in a low gear and slow down.

2. Use window protection covers to protect the wipers in rainy and snowy days

When encountering continuous snow or the weather forecast will snow, car owners should not forget when parking. Be prepared to protect your wipers. At this time, the car owner can choose to use a window protective cover under the wiper. Remember not to stand the wiper upright on snowy days, as this is likely to be blown off in heavy rain and snow. If there is an underground garage or parking lot, it is recommended to park your car indoors before the snow comes.

3. Remove fog from car windows in time

The temperature is generally low in winter. When driving in the morning, there will always be fog on the front windshield and the windows on both sides. What affects is the driver's line of sight. If the line of sight cannot be guaranteed, how can we talk about safety? Therefore, car owners can use warm air to remove fog when parking. Although the effect is not that fast, the durability of the defogger is still good.

4. Drive in the middle lane in foggy days

In addition to rain and snow, there is also foggy weather in winter, and visibility is very low when encountering foggy days. Therefore, car owners should try to stay in the middle lane when driving on the road, because it is difficult to deal with emergencies when driving on both sides of the road. In addition, car owners need to control the distance between vehicles when driving in foggy weather, turn on corresponding vehicle lights, and adjust vehicle speed according to visibility.

5. Replace antifreeze glass water

Glass water is also a consumable item for cars, so when encountering rain, snow or low temperatures, car owners should try their best to Replace the glass water with antifreeze glass water specially designed for winter, otherwise it will be troublesome if the glass water is frozen.

The above are common problems when driving on the road in winter. In order to prevent your car from "strike", car owners still need to pay more attention.
