Monsoon Car Care & Driving Tips

8. Beware of aquaplaning:

This looks like fun, but this scenario is the perfect recipe for a disaster

Aquaplaning can be a driver’s nightmare! Water puddles often form when the road surface in not flat and even. When a car drives over a big water puddle at high speed, the tyres tend to lose contact with the road surface and instead try to grip the surface of the water. In simple words, the car skis over the water like a surfboard. But since it’s not designed to act like a surfboard, the car may go haywire, losing complete control and may lead to a fatal crash. Though good tyres with deep grooves can help to an extent, it’s recommended that you just avoid such puddles. Such instances occur frequently on highways.

We hope our tips will help you maintain the car better this monsoon. Enjoy the ride!
