Best Answer

Wet brakes on any vehicle will usually result in eliminating the friction that is needed (physical surface resistance between the intended braking surfaces) to actually slow down the vehicle & bring it to a stop. Additionally, depending on the material of the brake pads & shoes being used, water can prematurely degrade the pads & shoes greatly reducing their intended service life.
