Why is keeping the road clean important?

"Road Grime" builds up, it is the result of exhaust, tire wear, oil leaks... It can make the road slippery and treacherous, especially when the road is also wet. This is why the first minutes of a rainstorm are particularly dangerous -- the rain is washing the grime away, but for a short while it is making it wet and slippery. Road cleaning helps control this.


Which has less friction a dry road or wet road?
