What happens to the stopping distance when the road gets wet?
you skid
Why will a car skid more on a wet road than the dry road?
because it's slippery... wet surfaces are slippery while dry is not this is because there is less friction and it cant grip to the road as well there is less traction when the roads are wet as the water creates a thin layer between the surface of the road and the tire. this means that the tires cannot grip onto the road and therefore skid TIRES SKID ON WET SURFACES DUE TO THE WATER THAT COMES BETWEEN THE TIRES TRACTION SURFACES AND THE ROAD. DRIVE sLOWLY ON WET/ SLICK ROADS AND BE SURE YOU HAVE GOOD TIRES AND BRAKES ON YOUR VEHICLE AT ALL TIMES AS WELL AS PROPER INFLATION AND ALL SAFETY RELATED EQUIPMENT SUCH AS WIND. WIPERS, LIGHTS,(BRAKE,HEADLIGHTS,TURN SIGNALS,ETC) HAPPY MOTORING.
Why cars skid more easily on rainy days?
because the rain makes the roads wet and slippery which then the tires cant grip the the road properly

Why is it illegal to have bald tires?
Bald tires are more likely to skid and slide - particularly if it's wet. It is considered an unacceptable risk to other road users.
Why in rainy season the moving vehicles on road skid?
In rainy season, moving vehicles on the road will skid due to the loss of friction when the tires encounter water on the road.
Why might cars skid on wet roads?
Cars might skid on wet roads because the water gets under the tires of the car. Then the cars don't have enough traction.
What is a vehicular skid?
A loss of traction caused by the tires losing contact with the road surface; it is characterized by the vehicle moving in a direction (due to its inertia) different from the direction the tires are pointing. A skid can be accidental (such as losing control on ice, or hydroplaning on a wet road) or deliberate (such as seen in car chase action scenes, or in the racing style known as drifting).
Who thougt of melting ice on a road?

What is Road hard and hung up wet mean?
Ride a horse hard and hang up the saddle wet
Which has less friction a dry road or wet road?
a wet road also see hydroplaning
How many decibels does a car skid generate?
This would be highly dependent on: - type and size of tires (coefficient of friction, sidewall flex) - weather (wet, dry, warm cold) - road surface (gravel, smooth asphalt , rough asphalt, concrete) - weight of the car/truck - angle of the skid - speed of the skid - speed of the tires while skidding (braking, accelerating in relation to surface speed)
