At present, it is the post-holiday return to work period, in the face of rain, back to the south, fog "mixed into a mess" caused by the road slippery, low visibility of the unfavorable situation, Yulin traffic police here to advise all travel friends, must pay attention to the rain and fog weather driving safety, cautious driving, strict prevention of rear-end, rollover and other traffic accidents.
So driving in rain and fog is so dangerous, what should we pay attention to when driving to ensure our driving safety?
Note 1
Control the speed of the car
When the visibility is less than 200 meters and more than 100 meters, the speed shall not exceed 60 kilometers per hour, and the visibility is less than 100 meters and greater than 50 meters, and the speed shall not exceed 40 kilometers per hour;
When the visibility is within 30 meters, the speed should be controlled below 20 kilometers per hour;
With very low visibility, it's best to drive to the nearest safe area or parking lot and keep going when the weather improves or visibility improves.
Note 2
Use lights wisely
If the visibility of the surrounding environment is low, fog lights, tail lights, width lights and low beam lights should be turned on to reduce the speed and avoid forced overtaking.
It should be noted that high beams cannot be used when driving on foggy days, because the light emitted will be diffusely reflected by the fog, forming a white expanse in front of the car.
Note 3
Frequently and gently slam the brakes during driving
Driving frequently and gently on the brakes in the fog, one is to control the speed, and the other is to turn on the tail lights when braking, which can remind the vehicles behind to pay attention to maintaining the distance. When driving in the fog area, generally do not slam or quickly loosen the throttle, let alone emergency braking and sharply hit the steering wheel.
If you think that you really need to reduce the speed, first slowly relax the throttle, and then lightly press the brake several times in a row to achieve the purpose of controlling the speed and preventing the occurrence of rear-end accidents.
Note 4
The vehicle should start, turn, and go uphill and down slowly
In rainy weather, the road surface is slippery, the vehicle should start slowly, slowly hit the steering wheel when turning, turn slowly, brake slowly, and avoid sharp braking;
Rainy weather increases the difficulty of driving on the ramp, up and downhill to the low gear smoothly through, the middle should not be changed, uphill anti-stall, downhill absolutely prohibit empty gear sliding.
Note 5
Pay attention to the choice of driving route
Drive as close to the middle of the road as possible, do not drive along the side of the road, in order to prevent scratching, touching, bumping the protective fence, to avoid collision with emergency parked vehicles on the side of the road.
Traffic police reminder
The most important thing to drive in rain and fog weather is to drive at a low speed and maintain a sufficient safe distance from the car in front, do not follow too tightly, and do not overtake, rush or occupy the road, and further slow down or pause when the car will be held.
At the same time, pay attention to observe the dynamics of people and vehicles on the road, so that you can concentrate and drive cautiously, and if you encounter danger, you can brake and stop at any time.
