Tips for Driving in Rainy Conditions

There are many steps you can take to be a safer driver even in rainy conditions. These include:

• Slow down. Rainy weather means limited visibility. Slowing down can help make up for this disadvantage.
• Use your headlights, even if it is not nighttime; cloudy conditions can make it very difficult to see the vehicles and objects around you.
• Keep your windshield clean and your lights in working order.
• Avoid braking hard or quickly switching lanes.
• Increase your following distance.
• If conditions get too bad, pull over and wait for the weather to improve.

By taking the above steps, you are better able to avoid being involved in a car accident, even when the weather conditions are unfavorable.
