Due to the low heat in the rainy season, people get relief, but problems like slippery and waterlogging on the roads also arise. This increases the risk of road accidents. Recently, a car overturned due to waterlogging on the Mumbai-Nagpur Expressway, in which a businessman from Nashik died tragically. In such a situation, if you are driving during the rain, then by adopting some important precautions, you can keep yourself and your car safe.
Walk slowly on the water
Often people get nervous after seeing a water full of water in front. In this situation, stay calm first and take a deep breath. Drive in the first gear. Gently press the accelerator so that the water does not bounce, as it can make the water into the engine. Keep pressing the throttle continuously so that the engine does not get water. When you come out of the water, stop the side of the road and press the accelerator for a while, so that the survivor of the silencer comes out.
Walk in the middle lane
The lane between the road usually fills the lowest water. Even if you do not find it right to change the lane according to the traffic rules, but the middle lane during the monsoon is considered to be the safest. If the vehicles are running there, then be a little patient and after the vehicles leave you too, you should also come in that lane.
The brake is necessary
If you have drunk the car in water, then it is very important to check the brake after exiting. The water may get stuck in a brake pad and disc or drum, so that the brakes will not work properly. Put the car a little fast on an empty and safe road and apply a brake 2-3 times and loudly. This will remove the water stuck inside and the braking will become normal. If the car starts slipping, do not panic, do not apply loud brakes, just leave the accelerator slowly and give light pressure on the brake.
How to avoid slippery
Slippery occurs when a layer of water comes between the tire and the road and the car starts slipping. In such a situation, the control of the car goes away. To avoid this, walk slowly in the rain, the grip of the tire should be correct. Keep the pressure of the tire correct. Do not break or bend suddenly. As far as possible, avoid pits or water filled parts.
