Hydroplaning can affect your vehicle's stability and handling. In extreme cases, hydroplaning can cause accidents since the braking system will not work as effectively. You can avoid hydroplaning when you drive your vehicle at slow speeds since the tires will get maximum contact with the road. When the roads are slippery or wet, avoid using the cruise control feature since maintaining a steady speed while driving can increase the risk of hydroplaning.
While driving off-road, you should steer clear of standing water and puddles. Ensure that your tires are in good condition and are well inflated. When driving on wet roads, keep a safe following distance, as it takes longer for your vehicle to stop. You can upgrade your ride with an electro-hydraulic power steering system to gain more control of your ride. It is also important to check your brakes and antilock brake system regularly to ensure proper functioning.
