GOOD VISION IN 
A 
DOWNPOUR 
 
How to achieve good vision while driving during a heavy 
downpour. 
 
We are not sure why it 
is so effective; just 
try this method when it rains 
heavily. 
This method was told by a Police 
friend who had experienced and confirmed it. 
 
  It is useful...even 
driving at night. 
Most of the motorists would turn on HIGH or FASTEST SPEED 
of the wipers during heavy downpour, yet the visibility in 
front of the 
windshield is still bad...... 
 
In the event you face such a situation, 
just try your SUN GLASSES (any model will do), and miracle! 
All of a sudden, 
your visibility in front of your 
windshield is perfectly  clear, as if 
there is no rain. 
 
Make sure you always 
have a pair of SUN GLASSES 
in your car, as you are not only helping yourself to drive 
safely with good 
vision, but also might save your friend's life by 
giving him this 
idea.. 
 
Try it yourself and share it with your friends!??? 
Amazing, 
you still see 
the drops on the windshield, but not the sheet of rain 
falling.? 
 
You can see where the rain bounces off the road.?  It 
works to eliminate the "blindness" from passing 
semi's spraying you 
too.? 
 
Or the "kickup" if you are following a semi or 
car in the rain.? 
They ought to teach that little tip in driver's 
training..  It really does work. 
 
This warning is a good one!   
 
I wonder how many people know about this 
~ 
 
A 36 year old female had an accident several weeks ago and 
totaled her car. 
 
A resident of Kilgore , Texas she  was traveling 
between 
Gladewater & Kilgore. It was raining, though not 
excessively, when her car 
suddenly began to hydro-plane and literally flew through 
the air.  She was 
not seriously injured but very stunned at the sudden 
occurrence! 
 
When she explained to the highway patrolman what had happened he 
told her something that every driver should know - NEVER DRIVE IN THE RAIN WITH 
YOUR CRUISE CONTROL ON.  She thought  she was being cautious by 
setting the cruise control and maintaining a safe consistent speed in the rain.. 
 
But the highway patrolman told her that if the cruise control is on when 
your car begins to hydro-plane and your tires lose contact with the pavement, 
your car will accelerate to a higher rate of speed making you take off 
like an airplane. She told the patrolman that was exactly what had occurred. 
 
The patrolman said this warning should be listed, on the driver's seat 
sun-visor - NEVER USETHE CRUISE CONTROL WHEN

THE PAVEMENT IS WET OR ICY, along 
with the airbag 
warning. We tell our teenagers to set the cruise control 
and drive a safe speed - but  we don't tell them to use the cruise 
control only when the pavement is dry. 
 
The only person the accident victim found, who knew this 
(besides the patrolman), was a man who had a similar accident, totaled 
his car and sustained severe injuries. 
 
NOTE: Some vehicles (like the Toyota Sienna 
Limited XLE) will not allow you to set the cruise control 
when the windshield wipers are on. If you send this to 15 people and only one 
of  them doesn't know about this, then it was all worth it. 
 
You might have saved a life.
