DRIVING IN  RAIN...This May Save Your Life. This is well worth  a read!    SAFE-DRIVING  TIPS WHEN IT IS RAINING!  GOOD VISION  IN A DOWNPOUR  How to  achieve good vision while driving during a heavy  downpour. We are not sure why it is so effective;  just try this method when it rains heavily.   This method was told by a Police friend who had  experienced and confirmed it.  It is  useful...even driving at night.  Most of  the motorists would turn on HIGH or FASTEST SPEED  of the wipers during heavy downpour, yet the  visibility in front of the windshield is still  bad.......  In the event you face such a  situation, just put on your SUNGLASSES (any model  will do), and miracles! All of a sudden, your  visibility in front of your windshield is  perfectly clear, as if there is no rain.   Make sure you always have a pair of  SUNGLASSES in your car. You are not only helping  yourself to drive safely with good vision, but  also might save your friend's life by giving him  this idea.. Try it yourself and share it with your  friends!!!!  Amazingly, you still see the  drops on the windshield, but not the sheet of rain  falling. You can see where the rain bounces off  the road.  It works to eliminate the  "blindness" from passing cars.  Or the  "kickup" if you are following a car in the  rain. They ought to teach this little tip in  driver's training.. It really does work.   This is a good warning. I wonder how many people  knew about this???  Another  good tip:   A 36 year old  female had an accident several weeks ago. It was  raining, though not excessively when her car  suddenly began to hydro-plane and literally flew  through the air.  She was not seriously  injured but very stunned at the sudden occurrence!  When she explained to the Police Officer what had  happened, he told her something that every driver  should know -   NEVER DRIVE IN  THE RAIN WITH YOUR CRUISE CONTROL ON.  She thought  she was being cautious by setting the cruise  control and maintaining a safe consistent speed in  the rain...  But the Police Officer told  her that if the cruise control is on, your car  will begin to hydro-plane when the tyres lose  contact with the road, and your car will  accelerate to a higher rate of speed making you  take off like an aeroplane.  She told the  Officer that was exactly what had occurred. The  Officer said this warning should be listed, on the  driver's seat sun-visor - NEVER USETHE  CRUISE CONTROL WHEN THE ROAD IS WET OR  ICY,  along with  the airbag warning. We tell our teenagers to set  the cruise control and drive a safe speed - but we  don't tell them to use the cruise control only  when the road is dry.  The only  person the accident victim found who knew this,  (besides the Officer), was a man who'd had a  similar accident, totalled his car and sustained  severe injuries.  NOTE: Some  vehicles (like the Toyota Sienna Limited XLE) will  not allow you to set the cruise control when the  windshield wipers are on. Even if you  send this to 15 people and only one of them  doesn't know about it, it's still worth it.   You may have saved a life.       ------ End of Forwarded Message No virus found in this message.
