But as beautiful as it is, the season also comes with its share of surprises, especially for our vehicles and children’s health. Let’s take a closer look at how to embrace the rain while staying safe and smart. 🌧️ Monsoon vs. Machines: What Happens to Our Vehicles? Rainy roads and engines don’t always get along . Waterlogging can cause engine stalls, reduced brake performance, and even rust. Windscreens fog up just when you need visibility most, and worn-out tyres become accidents waiting to happen. Quick Tips to Keep Your Ride Rain-Ready : Get your brakes, tyres, and wipers checked. Apply anti-rust spray to the underbody. Avoid driving through deep puddles—water and engines don’t mix well.
