In rainy or snowy weather, turn on the side marker lights and low beams. Although side marker lights do not provide illumination, they allow vehicles in front and behind to clearly see the width of your car, facilitating better driving. When it gets dark enough to affect visibility, you must turn on the low beams. In addition, during foggy conditions, it is also necessary to turn on the side marker lights and, when needed, the fog lights. Fog lights are specifically designed for weather conditions like rain, snow, and haze. When the rain or snow is heavy, or even during a blizzard, your driving visibility can be severely limited. Turning on the fog lights makes your vehicle more visible to others. This is because fog lights are not designed for illumination—their beams are diffused, highly penetrating, and bright without being glaring, serving as an effective warning. Do not use high beams. In rainy, snowy, or hazy road conditions, turning on high beams is a major no-no! The reason is that moisture and haze reflect light, causing the high beams to bounce off the mist and back into your car, further blurring your visibility. The intense light also makes it difficult for oncoming drivers to discern your vehicle's position and width, significantly increasing the risk of accidents. Additionally, when overtaking or making a U-turn during your drive, always use the corresponding turn signals based on your direction. If you need to make an emergency stop, turn on the hazard lights to ensure other vehicles can see your car from a distance, preventing collisions. Moreover, before embarking on a long trip in snowy or rainy weather, we recommend performing a comprehensive inspection and maintenance of your vehicle to avoid breakdowns that could disrupt your journey.
