GOOD VISION IN A DOWNPOUR


How to achieve good vision while driving during a heavy downpour. I can vouch for this!!
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 a heavy downpour, yet the visibility in front of the windscreen is still bad...

In the event you face such a situation, just try your SUN GLASSES (any model will do), and miracle!
All of a sudden, your visibility in front of your windscreen is perfectly clear, as if there is no rain.

Make sure you always have a pair of SUNGLASSES in your car, as 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..

This even works in a blinding snow storm. You can even see the tracks
of another vehicle long after it has been through.

Try it yourself and share it with your friends

one tip is to keep your windshields clean, one way to do this is to have it detailed then apply rain-x or any similar product. that way the water will bead instead of streak on your windshield providing better visibility.

I've tried this before when i was in Baguio. There was heavy fog at the top of Marcos Hiway.. Actually got the idea from my Dad. He had a pair of brownish-orange-ish Rayban Air Force Shades. He wore it all the way to Baguio before and said that he can see better wearing shades even though it was foggy. Been doing it too ever since Wink

nice article. i've googled it and read somewhere it's preferred that your sunglasses are polarized. worth a try since it's raining everyday lately.
