Key points for safe driving in rainy weather: 1. Maintain good visibility - besides driving cautiously, promptly turn on the windshield wipers when driving in rain, and activate low beam headlights and fog lights when the weather is dim; 2. Prevent wheel sideslip - rainwater on the road forms a lubricant between the tires and the road surface, reducing the car's braking performance and making it prone to sideslip; 3. Drive slowly in low gear - when needing to stop, try to decelerate about 100 meters in advance and apply the brakes gently, giving following vehicles sufficient emergency preparation time to avoid collisions or rear-end accidents caused by sudden braking; 4. Avoid getting stuck when wading through water; 5. It's not advisable to accelerate to overtake.
