When your car is hydroplaning, it means that a layer of water is preventing the tires from making contact with the road, which can lead to a loss of control. In this situation, steering and braking become ineffective, as the vehicle is essentially gliding on the water. To regain control, it is crucial to ease off the accelerator and avoid sudden movements. Once the car slows down and tires make contact with the road again, you can steer normally.

Does cruise control make hydroplaning more dangerous or increase the chance of hydroplaning?
When it is raining, the chances of hydroplaning are higher. You see, the cruise control makes every attempt to maintain a set speed. When hydroplaning occurs, the tires lose traction, and as such the car starts to slow down, then the cruise control kicks in suddenly trying to accelerate the car back to the set speed. The cruise control does not know the road conditions or if it is raining, snowing or you are floating on a lake ... it only knows the speed set point and will always do everything it can to achieve that set speed, no matter what. Best advice when it's raining - turn the cruise control off.

This means if the rear is sliding to the right, you should gently turn the steering wheel to the right. Avoid slamming on the brakes, as this can worsen the skid; instead, allow the car to regain traction. Once you feel the vehicle stabilize, you can gradually straighten the steering wheel and continue driving cautiously.
