How do you keep yourself and others safe while driving in the rain?

Heavy rain is falling in many areas of the country. People have got relief from the heat due to the rain, but drivers are facing many problems. The biggest problem of car drivers in this season is low visibility. Visibility on the road decreases in the rain, which also increases the risk of accidents. Due to humidity in this season, fog forms in the car windows, due to which nothing is visible in front.

Effect of low visibility and fog

There is more humidity in the atmosphere during the rainy season. The outside temperature decreases due to continuous rain, but the temperature inside the car remains warm. When the warm air present inside the car hits the windscreen, it cools down and turns into water droplets. These droplets freeze on the glasses in the form of mist and we are unable to see properly. This situation can be very dangerous during driving. If you are unable to see properly, you may collide with someone. But not all car drivers have the correct information about what to do to remove the mist from the glasses.

Effective ways to remove haze

To remove fog, a function is provided in the car which is 100 percent effective. By using this function properly, you can easily remove the fog from the glasses. Let's know about it:

How does car AC help?

In the rainy season, the help of the car's AC can be taken to remove the fog on the windscreen. When you feel that the fog is forming on the windscreen and nothing is visible clearly, then turn on the AC. Keep in mind that the AC should be kept in fresh air mode and not in recirculation mode. This will bring the cold air from outside inside the car and the temperature inside the car will become equal to the outside temperature and the fog will start to disappear.

Heater or AC: Which is better?

Running the heater inside the car during the rainy season will increase the heat and this will also increase the humidity. The opposite of this will happen that the fog will increase instead of going away. Now you must have understood that whenever fog forms on the car windows during the rainy season, you have to run the AC instead of the car heater. You can run the AC at medium cooling temperature.

Tips for Safe Driving

Drive slowly: The roads can be slippery during rains. So drive slowly and be careful while braking.

Keep headlights on: Due to low visibility, always keep headlights on. This will help you see yourself and others better.

Maintain safe distance: Maintain proper distance from the vehicle ahead so that accident can be avoided due to sudden braking.

Use windscreen wipers: Use wipers to keep the windscreen clean and allow you to see the road clearly.

Check the tyres: The condition of tyres should be good in the rain. Tyres with good grip are safe on slippery roads.

Driving in the rainy season can be a challenge, but with the right precautions and measures, you can stay safe. Use the AC properly to remove the fog on the windscreen and follow safe driving tips. This can help you keep yourself and others safe and still enjoy the rain.
