Drive Safe and Responsible in Rain

1. Drive in lower gears and higher RPM
2. Avoid reverse gear and try to keep the car in motion in water puddles
3. After driving through a pool of water, tap on your brake pedal lightly to dry off your brakes because wet brakes do not react as quickly as dry brakes.
4. Maintain good distance from the car… ahead
5.Have extensions for the exhaust pipes to keep them out of water pools
6. Avoid service lanes when flooded because you might not be aware of open manholes or bumps.

At last if you can’t see road signs or cars in front of you, consider pulling over and wait out the heavy rainfall.

Also, be careful not to drive fast over water when pedestrians are walking or crossing the road and see the motor bikers and people on cycles as well.
