Can You Practice Driving for Subject 2 on Rainy Days?
1 Answers
It is not advisable to practice driving in heavy rain or strong winds, as the road surface becomes slippery, raindrops on the windshield reduce visibility, and lane markings in puddles are difficult to see. However, if it's just light rain, driving practice can proceed as usual by turning on the windshield wipers. Avoid closing the windows completely to prevent fogging inside the car. Preparations for practicing driving in the rain: 1. Prepare tissues or a handkerchief to wipe the rearview mirrors before getting in the car. 2. Choose shoes with textured soles. When practicing driving in the rain, wear shoes with textured soles. Shake off any water from the soles before entering the car, and rub your shoes a few times on the floorboard before placing them on the clutch and brake pedals to prevent slipping. Dry your hands before placing them on the steering wheel to avoid slipping. 3. Turn on the windshield wipers. The wiper button is located on the lower right side of the steering wheel, opposite the turn signal button. Learn to use the wipers when driving in the rain. 4. Keep the windows open. During the test on a rainy day, try not to close the windows. Rain already impairs visibility, and keeping the windows open allows for better viewing of the rearview mirrors and reference points. 5. Avoid slamming the brakes. Wheels are prone to skidding on rainy days, so avoid driving too fast. When braking, first use light or intermittent braking to reduce speed before applying full brakes. Never slam the brakes suddenly.
