How to drive safely in rainy, snowy, foggy and windy weather?

It can be said that it is very dangerous to meet a strong wind suddenly on the expressway. Especially for large vehicles, the high center of gravity makes these vehicles easy to get out of control accidentally because of the lateral force brought by strong winds.

What should I do if I encounter a strong wind?

First of all, we should pay attention to all kinds of safety signs on the expressway and be prepared. Reducing tangential force by deceleration is an effective method to improve lateral force. Deceleration does not mean slowing down after encountering a crosswind, but slowing down in time before encountering a crosswind.

Don't panic when encountering sudden gale, and deal with it calmly. If there is strong wind blowing from the side when driving, slowly adjust the steering wheel according to the change of vehicle direction (be sure to calm down and remember not to hit the direction sharply).

If you encounter windy weather for a long time, it is best not to get on the expressway, because it is very dangerous to drive on the expressway when it is windy, so the most conservative suggestion is not to get on the expressway when it is windy, and it is safer to take national and provincial roads.

On rainy days, the most important thing is blurred vision. The road is a little slippery when it rains. When the road is wet, it won't slip, and the braking distance is similar to that when it doesn't rain. The fog on the windshield affects the line of sight. It's too cold to turn on the air conditioner, too hot to turn on the hot air, and you can only see it when you wipe it. There is a small way to wipe the glass with detergent and water without fogging. Better use a watering can. Wipe with a small towel after spraying. Mirror can also be sprayed, of course, the effect time is shorter. After the line of sight is guaranteed, you still need to go slow in rainy days.

Snow is really dangerous. The braking distance must be kept several times as usual. Don't exceed 30. If the snow on the road has been compacted, you can only drive at idle speed in first gear. Manual gear is easier to operate, and automatic gear needs to be changed to manual gear. Remember not to slam on the brakes, the vehicle will get out of control, and brake lightly correctly. When turning, you should reserve the road space for tail-sliding and tail-swinging, and judge according to the speed.

Of course, fog lights and double flashes must be turned on in foggy days, because the lights are yellow, and the penetration is farther, so that the other party can see you and the speed is slower.

In addition, keeping the distance between cars is also the key, and don't get too close. In short, there must be a pre-judgment when driving, and imagine everything that may happen during driving.
