Driving
too
fast through large water puddles or even
going through some car washes can cause problems,
too.
The water may affect your brakes. Try
to
avoid puddles.
But if you can't, try
to
slow down before
you
hit them.
Wet brakes can cause accidents. They
wc
~
t work
as well in a quick stop and may cause pulling to
one side. You could lose control
of
the vehicle.
After driving through
a
large puddle
of
water
or
a car wash, apply your brake pedal lightly until
your brakes work normally.
Hydroplaning
Hydroplaning
is
dangerous.
So
much water can build up
under your tires that
they
can actually ride on
the
water.
This can happen if the road
is
wet enough and you're
going fast enough. When your vehicle is hydroplaning,
it has little or no contact with the road.
Hydroplaning doesn't happen often. But
it
can
if
your
tires do not have much tread
or
if the pressure in one or
more is low. It can happen if a
lot
of
water
is
standing on
the
road. If
you
can
see
reflections from trees, telephone
poles or other vehicles, and raindrops "dimple"
the
water's surface, there could be hydroplaning.
Hydroplaning usually happens at higher speeds. There
just isn't a hard and fast rule about hydroplaning. The
best advice is
to
slow down when it is raining.
