Rainy weather can be treacherous for drivers, and traffic collisions are unfortunately more likely to occur in these conditions. In fact, 75% of all weather-related crashes happen on wet roads, and 47% of these accidents happen when it’s actively raining. As experts in collision repair, Butler Collision Center understands the importance of being prepared for any weather, as well as the importance of working with a collision repair shop you can trust.
What Makes Rain So Dangerous?
Compromised Vision
One of the primary reasons rain increases the risk of collisions is reduced visibility. Heavy rain can make it difficult for drivers to see clearly, especially if their windshield wipers are not functioning correctly. This can lead to drivers misjudging distances, failing to see other cars, pedestrians, or obstacles on the road, or missing crucial signs.Reduced Traction
Wet roads can be slippery, especially at the beginning of a rainstorm, causing cars to skid or hydroplane. This is even more likely if they’re driving too fast or have worn-out tires. It’s crucial to maintain a safe speed and adequate distance between your vehicle and those around you in wet weather to avoid collisions. It’s also important to always have tires with good tread.
