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 hprder it is
to
see. Even
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. 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
fmm
the inserts.
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 tractim jm’t as good as on dry roads.
