After the brief dry season the peak of this rainy season is fast approaching and I have devised some points in preparing your car for the rainy season
1.Dont waste your money in washing your car,@ the peak of the rainy seasons we will xpect lyk 8 thunderstorms in a day...so let the rain wash the car for you. And due to the bad roads in Nigeria..your car will get dirty again so there is no point in washing your car. Also washing your car with money isn't worth it because it witll get muddy
2.spread some newspaper on the floor of your car or if you want to be more fancy. Use cardboard. Because whether you like it or not you will have to pick up people and odds are they have muddy shoes on and the mud could seriously stain your foot mat also you can use this to reduce the age of your car if done always because the interior will be neater
3. (a little bonus for yourself)Always keep an umbrella at the back of your car because it's not usually funny if heavy rain gets you when you are still in your car
4. During the peak of the rainy season. Mornings are always cold. You can save energy and fuel by rolling down your glass and switching off your ac
5. Always drive slower during the rainy season especially if your road is bad. driving fast will cause a build up of mud under your car and when it dries. It will increase the weight of your car and this will burn up more fuel
6.service your car. You will need to service your car because no no would want their car to break down in traffic underlain or in a water logged area
7. Avoid muddy/bad roads. Its better to pass a road that is longer than a shorter road that's bad.you might think this vice versa but it's true it's not distance that ascertains your fuel consumption. Its the energy used so passing ditches and portholes takes a lot more fuel than you think.
And driving on good roads also gets the mud hiding under your car

8. Car drivers with diabetes, blood pressure, asthma or illness for which they take prescription drugs, should keep a stock of their medicines in the car.

9. Please top up your fuel so ur car dosen't run out of gas on the road when fuel stations r closed

10. Exercise utmost caution. Road conditions during stormy weather may confuse drivers. So drive a bit more slowly so you can react better to road conditions and what other motorists will do. Heavy rainfall reduces visibility
11. Anticipate when you need to make a full stop. Wet brakes are troublesome because they won't work as efficiently when you step on them. Step on the brakes lightly even though you're still within a safe distance from the vehicle in front of you. Then gradually increase pressure until you make a full stop. After going through a puddle, gently dab on your brakes repeatedly to dry your rotors. This will prevent you from skidding or losing control.
