Being able to see clearly when driving on rainy days or at night can be a challenge. In this post, I will teach you how to use windshield wipers and headlights correctly in these situations so that you don’t end up with a massive dent in your car or accidentally hit someone else’s vehicle or crash into something.
A lot of people have problems seeing clearly when it rains; either their front window gets too foggy or they can’t see beyond their hood due to water accumulating on the windshield. Nighttime driving is also difficult when there are big drops falling from the sky. You will have difficulty seeing the road ahead and your headlights won’t help much either since they don-t reach very far in front of you.
Therefore, I recommend that before driving on rainy days or at night, you prepare your car for these conditions by installing a windshield wiper blade that has an excellent ability to clear off water droplets and install high-quality headlights with a strong beam that will allow you to see clearly even at long distances.
Before I begin, let us note that this article is not intended for cars with rain-sensing windshield wipers feature. This feature turns off the wipers when there is no need to wipe because there isn’t any water on the windshield. Now then, let’s get started.

Windshield Wipers
These are the most important accessory when it comes to driving on rainy days or at night. They can be used both during dry and wet conditions, but they must be in good condition so that they won’t leave streaks on your windshield.
There are three types of windshield wipers: The old-fashioned ones (still used by some people) which require you to manually turn them back and forth; the newer type that are controlled by a lever on the steering wheel which you must push up or down; and the newest type that has sensors installed in them to detect when there is moisture on the windshield and automatically turn on when needed.
The first two types are not as convenient since they require manual effort, but they are cheaper than the third type. However, I recommend using only the automatic type because it’s more convenient and faster.
The most important thing is to keep them clean, especially the wiper blades and the motor which should be lubricated regularly. This will ensure the proper functioning of windshield wipers when it rains or at night time. You should also check whether the rubber connecting wires are in good condition because if they break, the wipers won’t work properly and you will have to replace them.
Windshield wiper blades should be replaced every six months because they tend to wear out quickly when used frequently during rainy days or at night time. It is best if you install a new set of blades every spring and summer so that they will last through the fall, winter and spring seasons. You should also check whether the rubber connecting wires are in good condition because if they break, the wipers won’t work properly and you will have to replace them.

Headlights
They should be bright enough to light up the road ahead at night and have a strong beam that reaches far in front of you so that you can see clearly even at long distances.
They should be adjusted so that they reach far enough ahead of your car so that you can see clearly even at long distances. If this isn’t possible, you should install brighter headlights or use additional lights such as fog lights which are positioned higher up than regular headlights. These lights help illuminate the road ahead when driving at night time or in foggy conditions.
Rear View Mirror
It’s essential to check your rearview mirror before turning on your headlights or driving at night time, just to make sure there are no cars behind you. This is because the road gets slippery when it rains, making it difficult for drivers to stop their vehicles if they need to slow down or stop. So make sure that there are no vehicles behind you before turning on your headlights or driving at night time. Also, remember to turn off the high beams if they are on so as not to blind other drivers.
Just like with headlights and windshield wipers, it’s important to make sure that there are no vehicles behind you before turning on your high beams or driving at night time. This is very important to check before turning on your headlights or driving at night time, just to make sure there are no cars behind you.
