Driving too fast through large water puddles
or
even
going through some car washes can cause problems, too.
The water may affect
your
brakes. Try to avoid puddles.
But
if
you can’t, try to slow down before you
hit
them.
Wet brakes can cause accidents. They won’t work
well in a quick stop and may cause pulling to one
side. You could lose control of the vehicle.
After driving through a large puddle of water
or
a
car wash, apply your brake pedal lightly until
your brakes work normally.
