Night driving tips include:
•
Drive defensively.
•
Do not drink and drive.
•
Reduce headlamp glare by adjusting the inside
rearview mirror.
•
Slow down and keep more space between you and
other vehicles because your headlamps can only
light up so much road ahead.
•
Watch for animals.
•
When tired, pull off the road.
•
Do not wear sunglasses.
•
Avoid staring directly into approaching headlamps.
•
Keep the windshield and all glass on your vehicle
clean — inside and out.
•
Keep your eyes moving, especially during turns or
curves.
No one can see as well at night as in the daytime. But,
as we get older, these differences increase. A
50-year-old driver might need at least twice as much
light to see the same thing at night as a 20-year-old.
Driving in Rain and on Wet Roads
Rain and wet roads can reduce vehicle traction and affect
your ability to stop and accelerate. Always drive slower in
these types of driving conditions and avoid driving
through large puddles and deep-standing or flowing
water.
{
CAUTION:
Wet brakes can cause crashes. They might not
work as well in a quick stop and could cause
pulling to one side. You could lose control of
the vehicle.
After driving through a large puddle of water
or a car/vehicle wash, lightly apply the brake
pedal until the brakes work normally.
Flowing or rushing water creates strong
forces. Driving through flowing water could
cause your vehicle to be carried away. If this
happens, you and other vehicle occupants
could drown. Do not ignore police warnings
and be very cautious about trying to drive
through flowing water.
