At what moment must we be especially careful with rain?
Safe driving
Explanation
When the **first drops of rain** begin to fall, it is crucial to take special precautions. This is because these drops mix with the **dust, grease, and other dirt** present on the road, forming a **slippery mud**. This mud can cause vehicles to skid, increasing the risk of losing control.
To avoid accidents in these conditions, it is important to:
- **Lift your foot off the accelerator** if the wheels start to skid, but without braking sharply.
- Keep the **tires in good condition** and ensure that the **windshield wipers** are working properly.
- Reduce **speed** and increase the **distance** from the vehicle in front.
These measures help maintain control of the vehicle and reduce the risk of accidents at the onset of rain.
