Are Highways Closed in Rainy Weather?

[MacAngela]

Highways are generally not closed during rainy days unless there are extreme weather conditions such as heavy rain, thick fog, or heavy snow. When driving on highways in the rain, you must be cautious and fasten your seatbelt because the roads are slippery, and strong winds can cause the vehicle to drift. Precautions for driving on highways are as follows: 1. Safety Check: Before getting on the road, check for potential safety hazards. Before driving on the highway, inspect your vehicle for any safety issues. 2. Fasten Seatbelts: Always fasten your seatbelt when driving on the highway, including both front and rear passengers. Avoid placing loose objects in the car. 3. Stay in One Lane: Avoid frequent lane changes on the highway—do not switch between the overtaking lane and the driving lane abruptly. Never make sudden stops or slow down without warning in the driving lane. Do not drive side by side with other vehicles, stay in the overtaking lane for extended periods, or attempt to overtake from the emergency lane. Also, prepare for lane changes in advance when exiting the highway to avoid missing the exit.
