What are the precautions for drivers in summer driving?

[DelMalachi]

Summer driving precautions for drivers are as follows: 1. Prevent tire blowouts: High summer temperatures cause tire temperatures to rise, making rubber more prone to softening. In severe cases, tire burning may occur. Vehicles are highly susceptible to tire blowouts when encountering hard objects at high speeds. Therefore, always check tire pressure while driving. If tires are overheated or the pressure is too high, park the car in a shaded area and wait for natural cooling. 2. Prevent vapor lock: High summer temperatures limit heat dissipation. When driving at low speeds with high engine RPMs, heat dissipation becomes difficult, leading to vapor lock. If vapor lock occurs, stop the vehicle immediately to cool down and resolve the issue. 3. Prevent water shortage: In hot weather, water in the radiator evaporates faster. Constantly monitor coolant levels and the temperature gauge. If a water shortage is detected, stop the vehicle immediately and wait for it to cool down before refilling. Be cautious not to open the radiator cap immediately to avoid burns.
