Driving tips in rainy days

Please slow down in rainy days;

You must keep a certain distance when driving in rainy days. Pedestrians on the road will play umbrellas, and people riding electric cars will also wear raincoats, which will affect their sight to some extent. Beware of the sudden appearance of non-motor vehicles, and always be prepared for emergency braking. The adhesion ability of automobile tires will be reduced because of water accumulation on the ground, and the braking distance will be longer. In this case, we must slow down and ensure that we have enough time to predict.

Slowly and evenly through the stagnant water section.

1. Observe the water depth before wading, and pay attention to the water depth scale when passing through low-lying sections such as bridges and culverts. If the water level reaches two-thirds of the bumper or tire, the risk of wading is great. Try to avoid it and don't force it through. 2. Drive at a low speed and at a constant speed to avoid the speed splashing back to the engine room too quickly. 3. Don't stop, shift gears or loosen the throttle in the middle, so as not to pump water into the air pump and damage the engine; In case the engine stalls when wading, never start it again. 4. After passing through the stagnant water section, remember to lightly brake for several times continuously, so that the moisture on the brake pad can be volatilized through the heat generated by friction and the braking performance can be restored.

Never strike a fire in the water;

Be sure to remember that the engine stops unexpectedly when wading, so don't start it again at this time. After the second start, the engine will be fatally damaged, and even if you buy water insurance, the insurance company will not pay for it. There is also an automatic start-stop function, which is best turned off in rainy days, in case we don't want to start it on the wading road, he will help you start it himself.

How to maintain your car after rain;

For car owners, every time after the heavy rain, the car should be maintained to keep it in the best condition, which is not only related to the beauty and use of the car, but also related to the safety of the car owner.

Disinfect the car properly to prevent bacteria from breeding;

Now the weather is often accompanied by rain, and it is easy to breed bacteria in the air conditioner in the car. We can disinfect the car properly. In-car maintenance can not only create a clean and comfortable environment for us, but more importantly, it can make car owners and passengers enjoy a safer and healthier experience in the car and avoid the harm of bacteria in the car. In addition, some experts said that car owners should always replace the air conditioning filter.

Check the chassis to prevent the wheel cavity from loosening and perforation;

After the "baptism" of rain, sludge will accumulate on the wheel cavity side and chassis of the vehicle, which will cause the vehicle to rust, and even the wheel cavity will be loose and perforated, which may easily lead to safety accidents. The chassis of the car pays special attention to the problem of braking. Because it often rains, it may lead to the decrease of automobile braking force and slow braking response, which will affect automobile performance and even cause safety accidents. Therefore, it is recommended to take time to check after the rain.

Waxing after rain to prevent the paint surface from being damaged;

With the decline of air quality, the rain is generally acidic. After being washed by acidic rain, the paint will lose its luster over time, which will affect the aesthetic feeling of the car body. If there is no special requirement for body painting, just wash the car often, because rain is generally acidic, but it is not a big problem for a good car. You can also wax the outside of the car body to prevent the paint surface from being damaged.
