The heavier the rain, the harder it is to see. Even if your

windshield wiper blades are in good shape, a heavy rain

can make it harder to see road signs and traffic signals,

pavement markings, the edge of the road, and even

people walking.

It is wise to keep your wiping equipment in good shape

and keep your windshield washer ﬂuid reservoir ﬁlled with

washer ﬂuid. Replace your windshield wiper inserts when

they show signs of streaking or missing areas on the

windshield, or when strips of rubber start to separate from

the inserts.

{CAUTION:

Wet brakes can cause accidents. They will not

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.

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 cannot, try to slow down before you

hit them.

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 are

going fast enough. When your vehicle is hydroplaning, it

has little or no contact with the road.

Hydroplaning does not 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 is not a hard and fast rule about hydroplaning.

The best advice is to slow down when it is raining.
