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.
'
A
CAUTION:
I
Wet brakes can cause accidents. They won't work
as 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.
