How to Prevent Hydroplaning with Szott Ford

Szott Ford

Hydroplaning can be a scary event, especially if it happens on a busy road or at a high rate of speed. When water gets between your tires and the road, this is hydroplaning. It could cause you to lose braking, steering and traction.

In the event one of the tires has a blowout…
