[QUOTE="khisham, post: 179287, member: 2956"] ...hydoplaning is physics & the elements combined during projectile motion... ...ABS will assist but only if other measures are in effect...ultimately, the amount of water or ice, as the case was for me, & the available traction capability (the tyre wear & tear) will allow ABS to assist in managing the movement of your car.... ...you must release the gas pedal & you must keep a level head & manouver your steering wheel when you feel that your car is hydroplaning... ...your tyres & your vehicle weight load while travelling, will also influence the effects of hydroplaning as well as the effectiveness of the ABS, if used... ..unfortunately, many in & from Asia practice blaring the horn and/or flooring the gas pedal to try & accelerate out of trouble instead of releasing the gas pedal, pedaling the brakes & trying to avoid the potential trouble... ...using the turn indicator lights is incredibly useful too... :) [/QUOTE]
