The best way to prevent hydroplaning is to drive __________ in heavy rain.

Correct answer

  • more than 65 mph
  • more than 50 mph
  • no more than 50 mph

Explanation

When it is raining or the road is wet, most tires have good traction up to about 35 mph. As you go faster, your tires will start to ride up on the water, like water skis. This is called ?hydroplaning.? The best way to prevent hydroplaning is to drive less than 35 mph in heavy rain or when the road is wet.
