Driving in Adverse Weather Conditions

Driving in foggy weather

High beams reflect in fog and reduce visibility; low beams and fog lights improve safety.

Driving At night

Use high beams in unlit areas but switch to low beams when approaching other vehicles.

Use of low beam lights

Also mandatory in tunnels and during adverse weather.

Use of high beam lights

High beams must be dimmed when facing or following another vehicle.

Driving in rain

Improves visibility and makes your vehicle more visible to others.

Lights in heavy rain

High beams can reflect off rain, reducing visibility.

On slippery roads

Braking or turning suddenly can cause skidding.

When to avoid high beam lights

High beams cause glare in bad weather and blind other drivers.

On a sunny day

Reduces glare and enhances visibility, especially during sunrise/sunset.

During hot summer

Heat can cause overheating and tire blowouts.

Driving in strong wind

Wind can push the vehicle sideways, especially high-sided vehicles.

Low visibility (fog/smoke)

Ensures reaction time and safe braking distance.

Driving In snow or ice

Required in some regions and improves grip.

Driving in tunnels

Mandatory even in well-lit tunnels for visibility and safety.

During thunderstorms

Heavy rain and lightning reduce visibility and road grip.

Driving In hailstorm

Hail can damage your car and reduce control on the road.

Driving After heavy rain

Drive slowly and avoid large puddles when possible.

Sunrise or sunset

Light contrast can reduce visibility for you and others.

Night driving in rules

Helps detect animals or obstacles on unlit roads.

Driving on wet Roads

Painted lines offer less grip when wet and can cause skidding.
