False.

Explanation
Roads are more likely to be slippery right after it begins to rain, because oil and dust have not washed away and the water mixes with oil and grease on the road surface. A slippery road will not give your tires the grip they need. Reduce your speed at the first sign of rain, especially after a dry spell.
