Driving in the rain? Focus more, less speed!

• Avoid driving at high speed – it takes longer to stop or adjust in wet weather.

• If you are going through a three-lane road, stay toward the middle lane – water tends to pool in the left or right lane.

• Maintain proper distance between you and the vehicle ahead – for braking distance.

• Don’t follow large trucks or buses too closely – the spray from the vehicle reduces your vision.

• Be more alert when driving in wet or slippery road – watch out the brake lights in front of you.

• Turn your headlights and rear fog lamps on – help you see the road and help other drivers see you.

• Never drive through moving water if you can’t see the ground through it – your car could be swept off the road.

• When driving through a puddle of uncertain depth, go slow. If it’s deeper than the bottom of your doors, turn around and find another route – deep water can cause serious damage to a car’s electrical system.

• If there is heavy rain and poor visibility – advisable to stop at the safe place such as rest and service areas or a petrol station.

Remember your love ones and drive safely!
