Explanation

Hydroplaning occurs when there is standing water on a roadway. Up to 35 mph, most tires will channel water away similar to how a windshield wiper cleans the windshield. As your speed increases, however, the tires will not be able to channel the water as well. Your tires may start to lose contact with the road and ride over the water like water skis. In a standard passenger car, partial hydroplaning can begin at speeds as low as 35 mph.
