What Are the Common Sense of Safe Driving in Summer?
1 Answers
Common sense for safe driving in summer is as follows: 1. Prevent tire blowouts: High summer temperatures cause tire temperatures to rise, making rubber prone to softening, and in severe cases, tire burning may occur. When driving at high speeds, encountering hard objects can easily lead to tire blowouts. Therefore, always check tire pressure while driving. If the tires are overheated or the pressure is too high, park the car in a shaded area to allow natural cooling. 2. Prevent vapor lock: High summer temperatures limit heat dissipation speed. When driving at low speeds with high engine RPMs, heat dissipation becomes difficult, leading to vapor lock. If vapor lock occurs, stop the car immediately to cool down and troubleshoot the issue. 3. Prevent water shortage: In hot weather, water in the radiator evaporates quickly. Always check the coolant level and monitor the temperature gauge. If water shortage is detected, stop the car immediately, wait for it to cool down before refilling, and avoid opening the radiator cap immediately to prevent burns.
