88. 天候
天候は視界、グリップ、車両操作へ大きく影響します。雨、霧、雪、氷、強風、強い日差しはいずれも事故リスクを高めます。状況に合わせて速度と車間距離を調整し、滑りやすい道路で急な操舵・制動を避け、視界低下時は適切なライトを使用します。表示速度以下でも、天候や路面に対して速すぎる場合があります。
How does weather affect driving?
Weather can reduce visibility, tyre grip and vehicle control. Rain, snow, ice, fog, strong wind and bright sunlight may require drivers to reduce speed and increase their following distance.
Should you drive slower in bad weather?
Yes. Drivers should adapt their speed to the weather, visibility and road conditions. The posted speed limit is a maximum and may still be too fast in poor conditions.
Why should you increase the following distance in bad weather?
Wet, snowy or icy roads can increase stopping distances. A larger following distance gives the driver more time and space to react and stop safely.
What should you do when driving in heavy rain?
Reduce speed, increase your following distance, use the appropriate lights and avoid sudden steering or braking. Heavy rain can reduce visibility and increase the risk of aquaplaning.
What should you do when driving in fog?
Reduce speed, increase your following distance and use the appropriate lights. Avoid relying on the vehicle ahead as a guide and make sure you can stop within the distance you can clearly see.
What should you do when driving on snow or ice?
Drive slowly and smoothly, increase the following distance and avoid sudden acceleration, steering or braking. Tyre grip can be greatly reduced on snow and ice.
