Driving in winter condition is very different and rather difficult then driving at other times of the year.
Problems usually faced -
MISTY VISION
Misty vision generally occurs , when our wind screen becomes moist because of temperature difference.Its a common phenomenon in winter season.
- If your window suddenly start to mist up while driving and begins to affect visibility, then turn on your air conditioning instead of car heater as the heater only disperse the water vapour from the wind screen.Colder air dries it and prevents it from becoming worse.
- Fill up your wiper fluid regularly so you have something to spray during heavy fogging which reduces visibility.Also the use of demist button will surely help.
- Get a mechanic to check the heater core as when the heater core breaks , as when heater core breaks it doesn't dump water,which can cause water vapour to build up and result in fogged windows.If you are experiencing more fogging than usual then this could be the reason.
- Leave a gap in the driver's side window to avoid misty vision.
