What should you do if your car starts to skid due to water on the roadway?
During heavy rain, at speeds as low as 30 mph, your tires may lose grip on the road surface due to water, causing them to lift and glide on a film of water—a phenomenon known as "hydroplaning." If your car begins to hydroplane, it is important to decelerate slowly without hitting the brakes to regain traction.
