We thank God for the rain. Its a time of refreshing but as we go about, find below a few useful tips for thsi period.
* Ensure you don't speed
* Make sure the wiper blades are working well
* Turn your headlamps on and your emergency lamps too
* Avoid depending on horns alone, while you honk, flash your full lights as well since most windows are wound up and A/Cs on in other to clear the windscreen of most cars. Some even tune up their radios for situation reports, coupled with the deafening sound of the rain and thunder outside, your horn alone is less than likely to pass the message across. Use your hazard lights and flash your full lights
* If you are on an unfarmiliar route, becareful because it will be difficult to differentiate pot holes from “gutters” and “canals”.
* Always keep an umbrella in the car.
Have a safe ride and a wonderful weekend
