What Level of Wind Can a Car Withstand?

[DelEliza]

It is not advisable to drive in winds of level 6 to 7. When encountering strong crosswinds, the driving stability of the car can be affected. During high-speed driving, the stability of the car is crucial. It is a misconception that heavier cars inherently have better high-speed stability. Additional Information: Car Stability: The stability of a car at high speeds depends on factors such as chassis tuning and aerodynamics. If a car's shock absorbers are relatively soft, its stability at high speeds will be poor, even if the car has a significant weight. Precautions: When driving in windy conditions, cars are affected by crosswinds, especially vans or large vehicles, which are particularly vulnerable due to their higher center of gravity and larger side surface area. Additionally, lighter cars are also highly susceptible to crosswinds, and the faster the car's speed, the stronger the effect of the crosswind.
