Why Maintain a Larger Following Distance on Wet Roads
1 Answers
Maintaining a larger following distance on wet roads is necessary because the reflection from water on the road can impair distance judgment, the slippery surface increases braking distance, and water spray from the vehicle ahead can reduce visibility. Below are some key points about driving through water: 1. Overview: Driving through water refers to navigating vehicles through low-lying, waterlogged areas, typically during rainy weather or in low-lying sections of roads with inadequate drainage. 2. Precautions: Before entering water, observe the road conditions carefully. While in water, maintain steady power, and after exiting, check the electrical systems. If the vehicle stalls in water, it should be towed to a 4S shop immediately for professional handling.
