Driving your vehicle
Avoid staring directly  at the headlights
of  oncoming  vehicles.  You  could   be
temporarily  blinded,   and  it  will   take
several seconds for your  eyes to read-
just to the darkness.
•  Turn on your headlights to make it eas-
ier for others to see you.
•  Driving too  fast through  large puddles
can affect  your brakes. If you  must go
through  puddles, try  to  drive  through
them slowly.
If  you  believe  you  may  have  gotten
your  brakes   wet,  apply  them   lightly
whilst   driving   until   normal   braking
operation returns.
Driving in flooded areas
1VQA3003/H
Avoid   driving   through   flooded   areas
unless you are sure the water is no high-
er  than  the  bottom  of  the  wheel  hub.
Drive  through  any   water  slowly.  Allow
adequate   stopping   distance   because
brake performance may be affected.
Driving in the rain
Rain and wet roads can make driving dan-
gerous, especially  if  you’re not  prepared
for  the  slick pavement.  Here  are  a  few
things to consider when driving in the rain:
A heavy  rainfall will  make it  harder to
see  and   will  increase   the   distance
needed  to stop  your vehicle,  so  slow
down.
After   driving   through   water,   dry   the
brakes  by gently  applying them  several
times whilst the vehicle is moving slowly.
Keep  your  windscreen  wiping  equip-
ment  in   good  shape.  Replace   your
windscreen  wiper  blades   when  they
show  signs   of  streaking  or   missing
areas on the windscreen.
Driving off-road
Drive  carefully   off-road   because  your
vehicle  may  be  damaged   by  rocks  of
roots of  trees. Become  familiar with  the
off-road conditions  where you are  going
to drive before you begin driving.
If your tyres  are not in good condition,
making a quick  stop on wet  pavement
can cause a  skid and possibly  lead to
an accident. Be  sure your tyres  are in
good shape.
