Driving in Autumn: Dark Nights, Wet Roads and the Return of the PotholeWe promised to share our top tips on keeping yourself safer as the nights get longer and statistically more accidents happen. Top Tip #4đśđ´ Pedestrians and cyclists: Spot them before they spot youHereâs an Autumn fashion mystery: why do so many of us swap brighter summer clothes for darker colours just as the evenings get darker?Black coats, dark hoodies and rainy pavements can make pedestrians difficult to see. Cyclists may also be harder to spot in poor light, particularly if their lights arenât being used.Add a wet windscreen, reflections and glare from oncoming traffic, and someone crossing the road can be surprisingly easy to miss.This doesnât mean pedestrians and cyclists are responsible for making themselves visible. As drivers, we need to look carefully and anticipate that other people may be difficult to see.Trident Top Tip: Look beyond the car in front.* Scan pavements and road edges.* Check carefully for cyclists before turning across their path.* Look around parked vehicles, where pedestrians may emerge.* Approach crossings and junctions at a speed that allows you to stop safely.Donât just look where you expect people to be. Look where they might be.Over the next few days posts we will share more of our Trident Top Tips to help you stay safer. If you canât wait that long you can check out our blog post.

Driving in Autumn: Dark Nights, Wet Roads and the Return of the PotholeWe promised to share our top tips on keeping yourself safer as the nights get longer and statistically more accidents happen. Top Tip #3. đ§ď¸ Rain, spray, mist and fog: Can you actually see where youâre going?Autumn weather has a talent for changing its mind halfway through a journey.One minute youâre fine; the next, youâre following a lorry whose tyres are producing enough spray to recreate a small waterfall across your windscreen.Rain, spray, mist and fog all reduce visibility. They can make it harder to judge the speed and distance of other vehicles, spot hazards and work out whatâs happening further ahead.And if your windscreen is misted up, your wipers are worn or your glass is dirty, things get even harder.Trident Top Tip: If you canât see clearly, donât drive as though you can.* Keep your windscreen clean inside and out.* Check your wipers and top up your screenwash.* Use dipped headlights when visibility is reduced, and make sure you know how to operate your lights.* Use fog lights only when visibility is seriously reduced, and switch them off when visibility improves.* Reduce your speed and increase your following distance.Automatic headlights donât always respond as you might expect in mist or fog, especially when the sky is still relatively bright. Check your lights rather than blindly trusting the AUTO setting.And hereâs that familiar message again: less speed, more space. We promise weâre not saying it just to fill the blog!Over the next seven days posts we will share more of our Trident Top Tips to help you stay safer.
