 Rain Always be mindful of standing water that can cause you to lose traction and control of your vehicle. You should turn on headlamps when it is raining. If your vehicle skids out of control, steer in the direction of the skid. If you see water flooding the roadway, don't try to cross it as it may be too deep and your vehicle could stall in the water.

 Fog/Smoke Turn on headlamps in the daytime and use low beam at night. High beam headlamps should not be used at night in foggy or smoky conditions because the light can get reflected back to the source, thus making it more difficult to see. The white line on the right side of the roadway is for use as a guide during foggy conditions and can prevent you from going off the side of the road.

 Work Zones Workers building and modifying our highways and bridges must be protected while doing their work. When approaching work zones, slow down to allow for any unforeseen circumstances such as sudden stops in traffic or workers having to enter the roadway. The heavy equipment they use is dangerous to motorists as it frequently enters the road from various points along the work zone routes.

 Aggressive drivers If you encounter someone who is driving recklessly or aggressively, slow down to allow him/her to go around you and keep a safe distance. Never try to "compete" or take a stand against those drivers; just let them go and stay clear of them.

 Tire blowout Have a good grip on the steering wheel and allow your car or motorcycle to coast to a stop, and try to get off the main travelled portion of the roadway. Do not brake or speed up to get out of the way of other motorists as this may cause your vehicle to crash.
