Car Pro Jerry Reynolds On KFYO Shares Crucial Rain Driving Tips

The Car Pro Show airs every Saturday from 11 a.m. To 2 p.m. On KFYO, with Reynolds fielding listener questions and covering automotive news for Texas drivers. This week that meant rain driving, timely given the wet weather Lubbock has seen lately. Reynolds compared driving in the rain to playing on hard mode, since it demands shorter reaction times while cutting down visibility and traction at the same time.

The advice matters here because Lubbock drivers do not deal with rain as often as folks in wetter parts of Texas, so those instincts get rusty fast. Flat stretches of road around town pool water fast in a downpour. Drivers used to dry pavement can get caught off guard. Reynolds framed it as a skill that needs relearning every time the weather turns, not something you just remember from the last storm.

For anyone commuting across Lubbock during rain this season, the segment works as a refresher on basics like reaction time and staying alert to changing conditions.
