235. Luz solar
La luz solar puede reducir la visibilidad cuando el sol está bajo o cuando una luz intensa se refleja en carreteras mojadas, nieve, edificios u otros vehículos. El deslumbramiento puede dificultar ver semáforos, señales, peatones y otros usuarios. El conductor debe reducir la velocidad cuando sea necesario, mantener limpio el parabrisas, utilizar el parasol o gafas de sol adecuadas y dejar más espacio para reaccionar ante peligros que puedan quedar temporalmente ocultos por el resplandor.
Why can sunlight be dangerous when driving?
Bright or low sunlight can cause glare and temporarily reduce visibility, making traffic lights, signs, pedestrians and other road users more difficult to see.
When is sun glare most likely to cause problems?
Glare is often strongest when the sun is low in the sky, particularly around sunrise and sunset, and when sunlight reflects from wet roads, snow, glass or other bright surfaces.
What should you do when sunlight makes it difficult to see?
Reduce speed and increase your following distance so you have more time to react. Use the sun visor where helpful and avoid continuing at a speed that is too high for the available visibility.
Can a dirty windscreen make sun glare worse?
Yes. Dirt, grease, dust and streaks on the glass can scatter bright sunlight and make glare much worse. Keep the windscreen clean inside and outside.
Can sunglasses help while driving in bright sunlight?
Suitable sunglasses can reduce glare and improve visual comfort in bright conditions. They should not be so dark that they significantly reduce visibility, especially when entering tunnels or shaded areas.
Does a sun visor improve visibility?
Yes. A correctly positioned sun visor can block direct sunlight without unnecessarily obstructing the driver’s view of the road.
