What do you do if your car is hydroplaning?

If your car is hydroplaning, remain calm and avoid slamming on the brakes, as this can cause further loss of control. Instead, gently ease off the accelerator to reduce speed and steer in the direction you want the front of the car to go. If your wheels regain traction, you can then slowly apply the brakes. Always maintain a safe distance from other vehicles and drive at a speed suitable for wet conditions to minimize the risk of hydroplaning.


What speed increment can make a difference between hydroplaning and not hydroplaning?

Hydroplaning can occur when a car’s speed exceeds the water evacuation capacity of its tires, typically around 35-55 mph depending on tire tread depth and road conditions. Driving at speeds below this threshold and ensuring proper tire maintenance can reduce the risk of hydroplaning.
