Yes, but be aware that this is particularly bad in dry climates like Nevada.

I have driven in Canadian Winters for 40 years

The first 30 minutes of rain in Nevada or other desert places is worse than an ice skating rink (yes I tried it)

The reason is because oils and debris form on the surface and don't get washed away on a regular basis. As the rain comes down, it tends to wash away the deposits, so it is less slippery after the first half hour of steady rain.

The road is most slippery A. after a long rain. B. when it is new. C. during the first half hour of the rain.?

The road is most slippery during the first half hour of the rain (C) because the rain mixes with the oil and dirt on the road, making it more hazardous for driving. After a long rain (A), the water washes away some of the oil and dirt, reducing the slipperiness of the road. A new road (B) typically has better traction due to the roughness of the surface.


Is during the first half an hour of rain the road is most slippery?

Yes, during the first half hour of rain, the road is often the most slippery. This is because the initial rain mixes with oil and debris on the road surface, creating a slick layer. After this period, the rain typically washes away much of the oil, reducing slipperiness. However, caution is still needed as road conditions can remain hazardous throughout the rain.

Dring A Rain Shower The Road Surface is likely to be most slippery?

During a rain shower, the road surface is likely to be most slippery when the rain first begins. This is because the initial rainfall mixes with oil and debris on the road, creating a slick layer. As the rain continues, the water can wash away some of these contaminants, making the surface less slippery over time. Therefore, caution is advised during the first few minutes of rain.
