Rainy-season driving: must-check items (Malaysia)
Malaysia gets frequent, heavy rain. Check these parts before heading out for safer wet-weather driving.
Heavy rain means low visibility and slippery roads, demanding more from your car. These checks before and during the rainy season make driving safer.
Rainy-season checklist
Tyres: enough tread to disperse water; bald tyres slip easily in the rain.
Wipers: if they don't wipe clean, change the blades for clear vision.
Brakes: wet braking distances are longer — ensure pads and brakes are good.
Lights: headlights, fog and brake lights working so others see you.
Aircond/demist: clear fog off the glass quickly.
Advice
Do a routine check before the rainy season, focusing on tyres, wipers and brakes.
