“Get ready for the return of rain in the coming days.”

Mau tempo obriga a cuidados redobrados na estrada

With the arrival of autumn, weather conditions change and bring with them the need for drivers to be extra attentive on the road and to adapt their driving to the conditions of the roadway.

Forecasts indicate that there will be sometimes heavy rain in the coming days, so it is necessary to take some extra precautions and maintain a smooth and attentive posture on the road. In this regard, we offer five tips if you are going to drive in adverse weather conditions, particularly in the rain.

Moderate your speed

Slow and steady wins the race. On rainy days, it is important to be mindful of a “heavy foot” and to drive at a moderate speed. Opt for smooth driving, avoid overtaking and risky maneuvers. When driving on wet surfaces, it is essential to maintain a low speed, as this will give you more response time and help prevent skidding or even accidents.

Maintain a safe distance

On rainy days, the grip on the road is lower, and consequently, braking capacity is also reduced. Therefore, it is important to increase the safe distance between vehicles so that in an emergency braking situation, you will have more space and time to react.

Good visibility

On rainy days, it is essential to maintain good visibility, and to achieve this, it is crucial to check if the windshield wipers are in good condition.

Turn on the lights

Another tip to enhance your visibility is to ensure that all the vehicle’s exterior lights are functioning correctly. Additionally, always drive with your low beams on so you can see better and so that others can see you as well.

Be cautious of water pools

The accumulation of water on the roads during rainy days is very common. If you encounter a water pool on the road, you should avoid braking, accelerating, or making sudden maneuvers. The best approach is to drive at a reduced speed and to carefully navigate through any water pools to minimize the risk of hydroplaning.
