How to Drive Through Waterlogged Roads
1 Answers
Drivers should pay special attention to slowing down when passing through waterlogged roads to ensure safety. Here are the precautions for driving through waterlogged roads: 1. Slow down and stop if necessary: Be cautious of 'hydroplaning' when driving on waterlogged roads. At high speeds, water between the tires and the road surface cannot be displaced, causing the vehicle's gravity and the friction between the wheels and the road to disappear, increasing the likelihood of hydroplaning. Therefore, reduce your speed to avoid hydroplaning and prevent traffic accidents. 2. Do not restart the engine if it stalls in water: If the engine stalls due to water, restarting it forcibly may cause significant damage to the engine as water could have entered it.
