Falling leaves present a beautiful safety hazard
Watching leaves turn brilliant
shades of color and fall from the
trees is a favorite activity each
fall. Drivers travel near and far to
witness spectacular and colorful
displays of fall foliage, hoping
to catch the peak hues in their
respective areas of the country.
While falling leaves can be a
sight to behold, those leaves can
become a nuisance to drivers
in various ways. Understanding
certain inconveniences and safety
risks posed by falling leaves can
help motorists protect their vehicle
and themselves.
Staining
Leaves can do more than just
stain driveways; they also can
damage a vehicle's paint job.
Should wet leaves, sap and other
chemicals that leach out of the
leaves stay on a car for an extended
period of time, they can cause an
outline stain and damage to the
paint.
It's important to manually pick
leaves off of the car's surface right
after they fall. Do not sweep them
away; otherwise the leaves can
scratch the paint surface. When
all the leaves have been removed,
thoroughly wash and dry the
vehicle.
Should stains be present
already, use a commercial leaf -
stain remover or automotive paint
cleaner. Tackle one stain at a time.
Clogging
Leaves that fall can become
trapped in air intake vents,
eventually impeding flow and
causing odors. Leaves that fall in
the groove of the windshield by
the windshield wipers should be
removed. Use a high-powered
shop vacuum to remove any leaves
that are imbedded in the venting.
Check other areas of the
car where leaves can become
problematic, such as under the
vehicle or in the rear exhaust
pipe.
Slippery surfaces
The Car Care Council notes
that wet leaves on the surface
of roadways can be hazardous.
Wet leaves can make roadways
quite slippery, even as slippery
as roadways when snow is falling.
Drivers should slow down when
roads are covered with wet leaves
and take turns and off -ramps more
carefully.
Dry leaves also can pose
problems, as they tend to
accumulate at the edges of roads,
where they easily can obscure
curbs or street markings. Leaves
may fill potholes, giving the false
impression that a road is smooth
and causing damage to tires and
suspension systems when drivers
drive over them.
Autumn leaves may be beautiful
to see, but they can complicate
driving and fall car care. Motorists
should keep their cars clear
of leaves and use caution on
roadways.
