How Do Large Puddles and Speed Affect Driving?
Q: How do large puddles and speed affect driving?
During and after a torrential downpour, it’s not uncommon for large puddles of water to form on roads, both highway and residential. Standing water can conceal hidden dangers like potholes or road debris that could damage your tires. Furthermore, driving through these puddles at high speeds can cause your car to spin and hit a guardrail, another vehicle, or even a pedestrian.
Here’s why decreasing your speed is important when navigating roads with large puddles.
