The fog causes a very difficult and hard driving experience. While traveling in such a situation, switch-on your headlights on low beam and use fog lights to make your visibility on the way.
Road Surface and Car Tyres:
During driving, make sure to keep all four tyres on similar surface on the road because two different surfaces will damage your tyres and can cause an accident. For example, if two tyres are slippery side and the other two are on the rough side of the road, your car can slip very easily.

How to Control Car Drifting:
This tip is crucial for your safety. There are three types of drifts:
- In Sliding, your car’s front excel will remain stable, while the rear side will slide and the car could go out of control
- In Drifting, your car’s rear side remains stable, while front wheels start to slide, becoming out of control
In Full Destabilization, your car’s all four wheels go out of control, and car starts to spin uncontrollably. If you face such a situation, never apply the brake or move steering right or left. If your vehicle is rear-wheel, turn your steering in the direction, the car is spinning. Meanwhile, if you have a front-wheel car, press acceleration lightly and control the vehicle with steering, or else, the car will start spinning in the opposite direction.
Driving in Winters:
While driving on snowy roads in winters, always apply brakes on low speed to check whether the road is slippery or not. Use this method when there are no other vehicles around you.
Furthermore, in winters drive at half speed, compared to speed in Summer season, i.e., if you drive at 60km/hour in Summers, drive at 30km/hour in winters, especially on turns.
Road Edges, Potholes:
Try to avoid potholes and edge of the roads because they can easily damage your tyres.
