What should a driver do if they begin to hydroplane on a wet road?
Hydroplaning happens when a vehicle's tires lose traction on a wet surface. The correct response is to ease off the accelerator to regain traction and steer in the direction you want the vehicle to go. Abrupt actions like braking or accelerating can cause loss of control, making the situation worse.
