Rain and wet roads can mean driving trouble. On a wet
road, you can’t stop, accelerate or turn as well because
your tire-to-road traction isn’t as good
as
on dry
roads.
And, if your tires don’t have much tread
left,
you’ll
get
even less traction. It’s always wise to
go
slower and be
cautious if rain starts to fall while
you
are driving. The
surface may get wet suddenly when your reflexes are
tuned for driving on dry pavement.
The heavier the rain, the harder it
is
to
see.
ETIen
if
your
windshield wiper blades are in good shape, a heavy rain
can make it harder to see road signs and traffic signals,
pavement markings, the edge of the road and even
people walking.
It’s wise to keep your wiping equipment in good shape
and
keep
your
windshield
washer
tank
filled
with
washer fluid. Replace your windshield wiper inserts
when they show signs
of
streaking
or
missing areas on
the windshield, or when strips
of
rubber start to separate
from
the inserts.
