How to Operate the Brake Pedal After Driving Through Water?

[FaithLee]

After driving through water, you should drive at a low speed and intermittently lightly press the brake pedal. The purpose is to use the friction between the brake pads and discs to expel water. The heat from the brakes helps remove moisture from the brake pads and discs, ensuring that braking effectiveness can be quickly restored. When passing through waterlogged sections, always use a low gear to slow down and proceed cautiously to avoid splashing water entering the engine compartment or intake, which could cause the engine to stall.
