Rainy weather increases road risks, but a few simple precautions can help keep you safe:
– Slow down – Reduce speed to maintain control & avoid hydroplaning.
– Increase following distance – Keep a 5-6 second gap.
– Turn on headlights – Improve visibility for yourself & others.
– Brake gently – Sudden braking can cause skidding.
– Avoid large puddles – Hidden potholes & hydroplaning risk!
– Check your vehicle – Ensure tyres, brakes & wipers are in top shape.
– Plan ahead – Leave early to avoid rushing.
Drive cautiously & stay safe!
