Driving in rainy conditions can be more dangerous than many realize. Whether it's in Brunswick or in areas with less traffic, rain can cause visibility issues. Wet roads are often slippery and difficult to navigate. Here are some tips from Brunswick Mazda for driving in the rain.
Slow down when it's raining. Driving at a lower speed makes sliding less likely to occur. It also lets you focus better and gives you more time to react. Turn off your cruise control and turn on your headlights. Avoid high beams, though, as too much light will make it hard for other drivers to see and can cause added glare from water on the road.
Speaking of which, you'll want to try to avoid driving through deep water. If you can't see the road markings, it's probably best to pull over so you can wait for the rain to subside a bit.
