Explanation
Hydroplaning typically occurs at higher speeds, but it also can occur if your tires are worn-out or not inflated properly. Remember that good tires with deep tread help to prevent hydroplaning. When there is heavy rain, you should drive more slowly. If your vehicle starts losing traction, decrease your speed even further.
