Precautions for safe driving in rainy days are as follows: Pay attention to speed: When driving in rainy days, the speed must be slowed down because the road is slippery, especially when turning, excessive speed can easily cause skidding. The wet and slippery road surface in rainy days will extend the braking distance, so it is necessary to decelerate in advance to give yourself enough reaction time and space to ensure safety. Pay attention to distance: Do not keep too close to the car in front, as the slippery road can easily lead to rear-end collisions. Do not follow large vehicles too closely. First, it will block your view. Second, large vehicles may not be able to pass through water sections that they can normally pass. Moreover, large vehicles are prone to splashing water waves, causing inconvenience. Pay attention to visibility: Ensure clear visibility by cleaning rainwater and fog from the windows, and be mindful of pedestrians when crossing the road. In rainy days, the outside temperature is low, and the moisture inside the car condenses into fog on the windshield, obstructing the view. In this case, it is necessary to turn on the air conditioning to defog. Drivers should slow down, yield patiently, and choose a safe place to stop if necessary, avoiding competing with pedestrians and non-motorized vehicles.
