Should I drive over a waterlogged section of the road? How to drive safely?

First of all, observe the depth of the water and do not drive over the axle. The second is to observe whether other vehicles of the same type can pass smoothly, and then decide whether to continue driving. Judgment of wading depth:

When the water depth is one-third of the height of the tire, it can be safely passed, and as long as it is done correctly, it will not cause unnecessary losses. Be careful when the water depth is more than half the height of the tire, as it is easy to cause water to accumulate in the car. If you wade deeper than the bumper, you should be vigilant when driving to avoid water ingress into the engine.

Shouldn't! If there is an extra road next to it, choose a detour. If not, hang into a low gear and walk slowly. Remember not to accelerate through waterlogged roads.

If you encounter a waterlogged section of the road, you can choose a remote area to drive over or get out of the car to see how the water is standing before deciding whether to drive over or not.

No. When crossing a waterlogged road, you should slow down, so you should not drive quickly.

It shouldn't be opened quickly. If you drive very fast, you may accidentally fall into a puddle because you don't know what the road ahead looks like.

When driving through stagnant water in the state, try to slow down, if you speed up the burying brother, it is likely that the car will be stuck in the quagmire of the bend and unable to extricate itself. It can cause water to splash on people nearby.

You shouldn't drive it quickly, because if you do it quickly, you will splash water on other people's bodies, which is very bad.

No. Driving through stagnant water is easy to slip due to the inability to see the clear water, and the stagnant water that flows up is easy to cause inconvenience to pedestrians.

1. Pay attention to the depth of water accumulation and braking to prevent engine stalling and brake failure.

1) In heavy rain, there is water on the road, be sure to pay attention to the depth of water, if the water depth exceeds the height of the exhaust pipe, it is easy to turn off the vehicle, so you should take the shallow water route as much as possible.

2) If the water depth exceeds half the height of the tire, the driver can wade carefully if the road surface is not deep enough to pass through the water; After passing through water, pay attention to the footbrake and handbrake, as the braking effect will be weakened after flooding.

3) If the proven water depth exceeds the entire tire, it is not suitable to wade, otherwise, the engine of the vehicle development hall bridge is very easy to stall, at this time, it is necessary to take a detour or wait for the depth of water to be reduced before wading through.

2. Understand the road conditions of the waterlogged road section.

1) The water on the road is very muddy on rainy days, but if it is not a fast-flowing water surface, you can still judge the general situation of the bottom of the water by observation.

2) Generally, where there are waves and whirlpools, there are likely to be larger stones and other obstacles, while places with calmer water surfaces are generally deeper, and the water surface is open and there are more uniform broken waves, which are generally shallow water layers with gravel at the bottom, which is a more ideal place for driving through.

3) It should also be noted that during or after the rainstorm, the shoulder and road gene are soaked and washed by the rain, and may become soft or even collapsed.

3. When driving through stagnant water, mainly protect the electrical parts and air intakes of the car.

1) When passing through stagnant water, check that all electrical appliances and wiring joints in the cabin can be sealed and wrapped, and wrapped with clinker bags and adhesive tape.

2) It would be great if you could change the position and height of the engine air intake of the car! When the car passes through the stagnant water, it must be allowed to drive smoothly, and it is not good to splash too quickly and easily splash the car's electrical appliances or the air intake of the stagnant person.

When the water depth is less than half a wheel: pass with a low-gear, high-speed low-speed cover. The water surface is close to half a tire of the car, so it is better not to drive it.

If the depth of wading exceeds the cabin cover, turn off the engine immediately, get out of the car and push the car to the side of the road. When multiple vehicles wade in the water, do not enter the water at the same time, and wait until the front car reaches the other side, and then the car behind you will enter the water, in case the front car stops due to a breakdown, forcing the rear car to also stop in the water.

Do not drive fast, and pass slowly at high speed and low gear. Even in shallow water, it is best not to go too fast, and the water rushing into the engine compartment is not good for the circuit, and in case of stalling, do not start the engine.

The correct way is to first check whether there is water in the engine intake, and if there is, then disassemble and check the air grid, if the air grid is already wet, you can't drive. If you know how to repair it yourself, you can remove all the spark plugs, start the engine to scatter, drain the water, and then install the spark plugs. Be sure to press the brake pedal continuously after wading in the water, so that the moisture on the brake pads and brake discs evaporates quickly.

This maintains good braking power. If the water is relatively deep, you have to go to the 4S shop to check whether the gearbox is flooded. If a large amount of water enters the intake pipe, the water will dig into the engine, and the water will be incompressible, which will bend the connecting rod and other components.

The correct way to drive through a waterlogged road is to observe other vehicles, turn off the automatic stop function, open the window, and avoid oncoming traffic, as follows:

1. Observe other vehicles.

First of all, it is impossible to judge how deep the water on the road is at the first time, and whether your car can pass smoothly, so you can observe other cars of the same type, such as driving a car, and see if other cars can pass smoothly and how they pass.

It is equivalent to others being guinea pigs, if other cars can pass smoothly, pass according to the driving methods of other cars, if other cars can't pass, then don't rush forward, or think of other ways.

2. Turn off the auto-stop function.

Nowadays, many cars are equipped with automatic parking function, if other cars can pass smoothly, although they are the same type but the same type of car is also very different, the car may not be able to pass smoothly.

Therefore, when the car is going to cross the road and there is water, it is best to turn off the automatic stop function, the reason is very simple, automatic parking is that it will ignite again when the car turns off. We all know that if the engine is turned off when the car is over water, it is best not to ignite it twice, and the second ignition may damage the engine by water.

3. Open the windows.

Even if it's still raining, open the windows to make it easier to escape. Because when passing through the deep water road, the car stalls, the window can not be opened, the door can not be easily opened due to water pressure, if the rain continues, the water level may become deeper and deeper, it is very dangerous to be trapped in the car, open the car to change only the window, it doesn't matter if the car is wet, life safety is the first.

4. Avoid driving in the opposite direction.

Be careful to avoid vehicles coming from the opposite direction, and try to choose when there are no vehicles passing in the opposite direction. This prevents the waves rolled up by the tires from entering the engine of the car when the oncoming car is coming, and it also prevents the waves rolled up by the tires from hitting the engine of other people's cars when driving, even if they hit other people's cars or glass, they will stain other people's cars.
