What is Hydroplaning?
Hydroplaning or aquaplaning happens when the tires of a vehicle lose traction on a wet roadway, causing the car to drift like a sled until the wheels gain traction again. As one might imagine, hydroplaning is extremely dangerous, since the vehicle is out of the driver's control while it slides. During rainy or slushy weather, drivers need to be aware of the risk of hydroplaning, and it is important to drive carefully in these conditions to avoid this dangerous driving situation.
The tires of a vehicle are extremely important, since they connect the vehicle with a roadway. The better the traction between the tires and the road, the more control a driver has. Traction is greatly improved by treads which help to grip the road. Treads also wick away water when drivers navigate in wet conditions. When tires travel too quickly, they cannot push water away quickly enough, and they may start skidding on the surface of the water, which will cause hydroplaning.
