Driving In Rain
Driving in the rain can be difficult. Just as it is difficult to drive at night, it’s hard to drive in the rain sometimes. It’s especially hard to drive in the rain when it’s really hard rain and you can barely see through the windshield, even with the windshield wipers on. Some drivers start to panic and just pull over, others start to hydroplane over the huge puddles, and some just decide to stay where they are until it passes. There are many different ways to get through driving in rough weather conditions. L.A. Insurance has put together a list of a few things that might help you drive better during a rainstorm.
The first thing to do when driving in rain is to wait until the weather gets better. All of the sources that we researched had this rule as their first suggestion. Avoiding or delaying driving during the rain will put you in a safer position and decrease your risk of getting into a weather-related accident. Sometimes having a little patience really will make you safer as a driver and be able to avoid accidents. However, if you’re a brave one and want to try driving in the rain, there are a few things you should remember.
SLOW DOWN! Slowing down your speed and driving carefully is a great way to be a safe driver in the rain. Hydroplaning occurs when cars are driving too fast and can be combatted by driving at a slower speed when it rains. This also means that cruise control should be avoided at all costs when driving in the rain. Your tires can lose contact when driving 35 MPH in as little as 1/10th of an inch of water. Maintaining a safe distance between you and the cars in front of you will decrease the likeliness of an accident as well. In order to prevent traction loss, you must ease off the accelerator, and that isn’t possible when the car is in cruise control. If you need to ease off the accelerator to stay safe, then you also need to make sure you’re not braking too hard. Sudden movements might distract other drivers around you and braking hard during a storm could cause an unwanted accident.
Another great tip is to make sure that you can see through the windshield! This might seem obvious but keeping your car well ventilated will help the window not to fog up. Turn on your window defroster when driving in the rain to reduce fog and enhance visibility. Using your windshield wipers can also help with seeing better while driving in the rain. With the visibility comes the lights as well. Turning on your lights will help you see better because it’s usually darker when it rains. The rain coupled with the dark is a really dangerous driving situation. Avoiding that by turning on your wipers, lights, and window defroster are the best ways to have better visibility in the rain while driving.
There are a lot of ways to stay safe when driving in the rain. The main thing to remember is that being a safe driver will get you there safely. These tips are just the main things to remember when it starts to pour. Each situation varies based on the intensity of the weather but knowing the basics is really helpful in reducing anxiety and stress in drivers. Don’t be stressed, L.A. Insurance has got you covered.
