Matters needing attention in driving in rainy and snowy days

Precautions for driving in rainy and snowy days are as follows:

1. Increase the following distance: rainy and snowy weather will make the road slippery. When driving, it is necessary to increase the distance from the car to prevent the front car from braking suddenly and not braking in time to cause traffic accidents.

2. Speed: When driving in rain and snow, it is best to control the speed, and it is better to drive at a low speed. The faster the speed, the shorter the sight distance and the longer the braking distance. Coupled with the rainy and snowy weather, the braking distance will be longer. If the speed is too fast and the brakes are not enough, the consequences will be very serious.

3. Don't slam on the accelerator: the road will be slippery in rain and snow, especially in winter, the road may freeze and the tire grip will become smaller. If you slam on the accelerator, the car will accelerate too fast, which will lead to tire slippage, and in serious cases, it will lead to car sideslip, which will easily lead to traffic accidents.

4. Don't brake suddenly: If the vehicle brakes suddenly in rainy and snowy weather, it will cause the vehicle to sideslip. If the vehicle does not have ABS anti-lock braking system, the consequences will be more serious. Therefore, in rainy and snowy weather, we'd better use the engine's braking to slow down, and we should have foresight when braking, so as to brake early and lightly.

5. Check the tires: Before going out, check the tire wear. If the tire is badly worn, it should be replaced in time.

6. Pay attention to observation: rain and snow will hinder our sight. During driving, pay more attention to the situation of vehicles, road conditions and pedestrians, and pay more attention to preventing unexpected situations.
