Your tires begin to hydroplane on a wet road. Which response helps you regain grip?
A blue car travels through water on a wet road, with water around its tires.
Correct answer: Ease off slowly and avoid sudden steering or braking.
Why
Hydroplaning occurs when the tires ride on water instead of maintaining normal contact with the road. Ease off the accelerator gradually and keep both hands on the wheel, guiding the car smoothly along the intended path. Avoid abrupt braking or steering. Reduce speed before standing water, and maintain suitable tires and pressure; do not use cruise control on a slippery surface.
