What should you pay attention to when driving in rainy days? Shijiazhuang Traffic Police "Let's Talk"
As summer approaches, it rains more and more. Whether it is light rain or heavy rain, it will bring inconvenience to travel. So what do you need to prepare for driving in rainy days? The traffic police in Shijiazhuang, Hebei Province will tell you the answer.
1. Preparation before rain
In order to cope with rainy weather, you need to be fully prepared when it does not rain.
So, what equipment should be checked first on the car?
The first thing to check is the wipers. A wiper that can work properly can ensure that your vision is not blocked when driving in rainy days.
The second is to check the car lights. Thunderstorms are mostly accompanied by cloudy days. In order to have a clear vision, you must check the car lights.
Third, check the vehicle’s tires—are the brake pads severely worn? Is there any air leakage? Water accumulation on the road in rainy days will increase the braking distance of the vehicle. Tire and brake failure can easily cause the vehicle to skid or even rollover.
The last step is to check the skylight. Some vehicles are old and aged. If they cannot be properly isolated from water, they will be like boating in heavy rain.
2. Driving in the Rain
When driving in the rain, you should not be careless after you hit the road. Not only must the rain and road conditions be analyzed, but also timely responses must be made based on these changes.
1. Select lights and vehicle speed according to the rain intensity
When the rain intensity is small
On rainy days, because the light is dark, the width lights and low beam lights should be turned on. This way the vehicle outline will be clearer. Also pay attention to maintaining an appropriate following distance.
When the rain is moderate
When it is obvious that the rain is increasing and the wipers are already working continuously and rapidly, it is necessary to turn on the front and rear fog lights, which can effectively It plays the role of road lighting and safety warning. At this time, you should also drive at a low speed and with caution, because slippery ground will reduce friction, increase the braking distance, and greatly increase the accident rate of rear-end collisions.
When the rain is heavy
If the wipers can no longer keep up with the rain and you can no longer see the road clearly. It is necessary to turn on the hazard warning lights in time, which is commonly known as "double flash". Then get out of the driveway as quickly as possible, choose a safe place to park, wait until the rain subsides, and then drive away.
Finally, I would like to remind everyone: no matter how heavy the rain is, never turn on the high beam.
2. Choose a driving route
In addition to the use of lights and the choice of vehicle speed, driving routes on rainy days also need to be planned in advance.
First, try to avoid crushing puddles of unknown depth and size.
Secondly, when planning the route, try to avoid bridge holes that are prone to water accumulation. If it is impossible to avoid it, you should also pay attention to the water depth scale of the bridge hole. Once the water depth exceeds the allowable wading depth of the vehicle, do not move forward rashly.
Thirdly, on rainy days, try to drive in the middle lane of the road. Because the terrain in the center of the road is generally relatively high, there will naturally be less water accumulation, which can minimize the occurrence of water intrusion and sinking of vehicles.
3. Parking on rainy days
Rainy days are often accompanied by strong convective weather such as strong winds, so the parking location is also very important.
First, do not park under a big tree to avoid falling branches from damaging your car.
Second, do not park under high-rise buildings to avoid falling objects from high altitude and causing unnecessary losses.
Third, do not park near billboards or high-voltage power lines. These locations are also very dangerous on rainy days.
Of course, no matter how open and suitable the location is, terrain factors must also be considered: try to avoid low-lying or water-prone road sections to prevent your car from being flooded for no reason.
4. Inspection after rain
After a rainy day, it is very important to check the vehicle’s drain outlets. They are: lower door panel drain outlet, fuel tank drain outlet, and engine cabin drain outlet. , engine air intake.
Remember not to let debris falling from the wind or rain block the drainage outlet and affect the drainage of accumulated water inside the vehicle. After the rain, remember to choose a sunny day, open the car door, and let your wet car bask in the sun.
5. Driving in a civilized manner
Finally, Shijiazhuang Shumao would also like to remind drivers and friends not to forget to drive in a civilized manner even on rainy days. When you hit the road on a rainy day, you face not only vehicles, but also many pedestrians wearing raincoats and umbrellas.
Pedestrians may have vision and hearing obstruction due to various reasons. Drivers should not be impatient at this time. They can change the high and low beam lights or sound the horn appropriately to remind them. Of course, if there are pedestrians passing by on the roadside, you should try to slow down as much as possible to avoid the water on the road from splashing and causing trouble to pedestrians.
Article 64 of my country's "Regulations for the Implementation of the Road Traffic Safety Law" stipulates: When a motor vehicle passes through a water-filled road or a water-filled bridge, it must stop to check the water conditions, and after confirming that it is safe, pass at a low speed. .
According to Article 90 of the "Road Traffic Safety Law" and Article 64 of the "Regulations for the Implementation of the Road Traffic Safety Law": Motor vehicles that fail to pass at a low speed when passing through flooded roads or flooded bridges will be punished. A fine of 200 yuan.
