When driving on wet or slippery roads, the speed limit is:
Correct Answer:
Reasonable for existing conditions
Explanation:
When roads are wet or slippery, you must drive at a speed that is reasonable and prudent for the conditions. The posted limit is the maximum under ideal conditions, not a guarantee you can safely drive that fast when surfaces are slick. Wet pavement reduces traction, increases braking distances, and raises the risk of skidding or hydroplaning. So you should slow down enough to maintain control, keep a greater following distance, and be able to stop within the distance you can see and the road allows. If you can’t stop safely or you feel you’re losing traction, reduce speed further and adjust your driving to the conditions.
