Precautions for driving on slippery roads include maintaining a safe distance from the vehicle ahead, turning on fog lights, and reducing speed in advance when turning. Maintaining a safe distance from the vehicle ahead: Try to keep a certain distance from the vehicle in front while driving, avoid tailgating, and refrain from frequent overtaking. Also, maintain an appropriate speed and avoid high-speed driving. In areas with many pedestrians, be sure to slow down and pay more attention to the situation ahead and around you. Turning on fog lights: When the fog is heavy, turn on the fog lights. On sharp curves, do not turn the steering wheel abruptly. If the front wheels skid, promptly turn the steering wheel in the opposite direction of the skid. If the rear wheels skid, immediately reduce the throttle and turn the steering wheel slightly in the direction of the skid. If you suddenly encounter a puddle on the road, avoid slamming on the brakes to prevent losing control of the vehicle. Reducing speed in advance when turning: When the car is turning, reduce the speed in advance and control the direction properly. Turn the steering wheel slowly and steadily to prevent skidding during the turn.
