Does Rain Affect Driving Practice?
1 Answers
Rain affects driving practice because it can obscure visibility and make vehicles more prone to slipping, especially testing the skills of beginners. Below are some tips for practicing driving in the rain: Prepare tissues or a handkerchief: Wipe the rearview mirrors before getting in the car. If using tissues, remember not to litter—put them in your pocket and dispose of them in a trash bin later. When practicing in the rain: Wear shoes with textured soles to improve grip. Shake off any water from your shoes before entering the car, and rub them against the floorboard a few times before placing them on the clutch or brake to prevent slipping. Dry your hands before holding the steering wheel to avoid slipping. Use the windshield wipers frequently: The wiper control 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.
