This is called hydroplaning. It happens when you are moving so fast over water that the water can't get out of the way fast enough for the tire to touch the road. The tire is actually lifted off of the road and gliding on a film of water that is trying to move out of the way. Hydroplaning is dangerous, as it causes you to lose control of the vehicle.
