What can you expect during sudden braking in these road conditions?
Description
Matter not regulated by law
Explanation
Correct answer: Decreased traction of the wheels to the road.
The attached image shows difficult winter conditions, including a wet and likely slippery road surface covered in slush. In these circumstances, the coefficient of friction between the tires and the road is much lower, causing a drastic reduction in wheel grip. Sudden braking in these conditions carries a risk of rapid loss of steering control and skidding.
