Driving safety on rainy days is especially important.
In addition to turning on the lights when changing lanes when driving,
Corresponding lights must also be turned on on rainy and foggy days.
Otherwise, it is illegal.
In some low visibility situations,
Driving with lights on can reduce car accident fatalities by nearly 30%.
Turning on the lights is not only to illuminate yourself, but more importantly, to let others see you clearly!

What is the correct way to drive with lights on on rainy days?
Come and listen to the traffic police’s professional answers!

Wrong light on mode
1
Turn on double jump light
I heard from many experienced drivers that you must turn on double flashers when driving in heavy rain. This will make it easier for the car behind you to judge the safe distance from you.
In fact, this is a wrong way to turn on the lights. The reason is: if everyone is driving a double jump, if one of the cars is really involved in an accident or breaks down, it will easily cause a rear-end collision!
2
Turn on high beam
Turn on the high beam on rainy and foggy days,
It is a very wrong behavior,
Because the high beams are diffusely reflected in rainy and foggy days, the more you turn on the lights, the foggier they become!
Yichun traffic police emphasized
It is illegal to drive your high beams when you are close to the car in front and the oncoming car is oncoming, and it is harmful to others and yourself!

Misunderstanding of daytime running lights: Daytime running lights = low beam?
Many cars are now equipped with "daytime running lights", and many people use "daytime running lights" instead of "low beams".
Daytime running lights. Some cars have headlights on but taillights off. On rainy days and when visibility is low, turn on your own low beams. Don't just rely on daytime running lights.
According to Article 58 of my country's "Regulations for the Implementation of the Road Traffic Safety Law": "When a motor vehicle is driving at night without street lights, with poor lighting, or in low-visibility conditions such as fog, rain, snow, sand, dust, hail, etc., it shall turn on its front lights. lights, position lights and rear position lights." Therefore, it is illegal to drive without lights on in rainy days!
