Can Water Splashed by a Car Enter the Engine?
1 Answers
Water splashed by a vehicle will not enter the engine. It is recommended to drive at a speed of 20km/h when encountering water on the road. The accident rate during rainy days is five times higher than on sunny days. Drivers' visibility is obstructed, and the viewing distance is shorter, especially during heavy storms when the windshield wipers cannot promptly clear the rainwater, leaving the driver's vision blurred. Precautions for driving in the rain: 1. Maintain good visibility: Besides driving cautiously, promptly turn on the windshield wipers when driving in the rain. In dim weather, also turn on the low beams and fog lights. 2. Prevent wheel skidding: The braking performance of a car deteriorates in the rain, making it prone to skidding. Therefore, drivers should hold the steering wheel with both hands evenly, maintain a straight and low-speed drive, and when turning, gently apply the brakes to prevent wheel lock-up and vehicle skidding.
