Driving at night
Because night driving presents more
hazards than driving in the daylight,
here are some important tips to
remember:
䳜 Slow down and keep more dis
-
tance between you and other
vehicles, as it may be more diffi
-
cult to see at night, especially in
areas where there may not be
any street lights.
䳜 Adjust your mirrors to reduce the
glare from other driver's head
-
lamps.
䳜 Keep your headlamps clean and
properly aimed. (On vehicles not
equipped with the automatic
headlamp aiming feature.) Dirty
or improperly aimed headlamps
will make it much more difficult to
see at night.
䳜 Avoid staring directly at the head
-
lamps of oncoming vehicles. You
could be temporarily blinded, and
it will take several seconds for
your eyes to readjust to the dark
-
ness.
Driving in the rain
Rain and wet roads can make driving
dangerous, especially if you're not
prepared for the slick pavement.
Here are a few things to consider
when driving in the rain:
䳜 A heavy rainfall will make it
harder to see and will increase the
distance needed to stop your
vehicle, so slow down.
䳜 Keep your windshield wiping
equipment in good shape. Replace
your windshield wiper blades
when they show signs of streak
-
ing or missing areas on the wind
-
shield.
䳜 If your tires are not in good condi
-
tion, making a quick stop on wet
pavement can cause a skid and
possibly lead to an accident. Be
sure your tires are in good shape.
䳜 Turn on your headlamps to make
it easier for others to see you.
䳜 Driving too fast through large
puddles can affect your brakes. If
you must go through puddles, try
to drive through them slowly.
