Driving slower is always the best thing to do, when roads are slippery, braking is harder so be careful with braking as well. Cruise control is something to avoid because it can cause Hydroplaning

A defensive driving technique that helps to make me and your passenger safer would be to stop the car and wait for the rain to pass, but if it is not possible, then the driver should slow down, and turn on the headlights of the car and operate the windshield wipers.

What is the defensive technique during driving in heavy rain?

  • In the rain, the driver's attention needs to be doubled, he needs to be more careful with two reasons:
  1. Is visibility should be compromised
  2. Is the track slippery.
  • For these reasons, some safety measures must be taken to prevent accidents.
  • In extremely heavy rain, it is best to stop the car and wait.
  • This is the proper attitude because besides the track is very smooth, the windshield wiper will not be able to provide adequate visibility.
  • However, if the rain is not heavy, it is best to turn on the car's headlights, activate the windshield wipers, slow down, steer the lines and brake the car gently.
