What should a driver do if the tires begin to hydroplane?
Blue A is on a wet road. An enlarged tire-contact detail shows a water film between the tire and road. The detail has a separate scale.
Correct answer: Ease off the gas and hold the wheel steady.
Why
Smoothly reducing power and holding a steady path lets the tires regain contact with the pavement.
