What should you do if you feel your vehicle hydroplaning on a wet road?
If you feel your vehicle starting to hydroplane on a wet road, the best course of action is to ease off the accelerator and keep the vehicle moving straight. This allows your tires to regain contact with the road surface without sudden movements that could lead to further loss of control. Avoid braking hard or making sudden turns as these can worsen the situation. This technique is recommended for safety, as specified in the 'new-york-car-en.pdf'.
