What is hydroplaning?

Show Answer & Explanation
Correct Answer: B. When your tires ride on top of a layer of water and lose contact with the road

Hydroplaning happens when a layer of water builds up between your tires and the road surface. Your tires lose grip and you can lose control of steering and braking. Slow down in rainy conditions to avoid this.
