Q #69 - You're following a lorry on a wet road. What should you do when spray makes it difficult to see the road ahead?
Large vehicles throw up a lot of spray when it's wet. This makes it difficult for following drivers to see the road ahead. You'll be able to see more by dropping back further, out of the spray. This will also increase your separation distance, giving you more room to stop if you have to.
Drop back until you can see better
Put your headlights on full beam
Keep close to the lorry, away from the spray
Speed up and overtake quickly
