hydroplaning = guy being tossed 20 feet
you can be going 35 or 65 and still hydroplane, it sucks ***, try it at 80 sometime, will scare you shitless because you have no control over the vehicle

its a lot easier to hydroplane in a light car rather than a heavy truck or SUV. i almost died 5000 times in my integra hydroplaning. it was a pos in the rain

haha love the fix on the title, 100....100/5
slick rick, bigger tires = worse traction in rain
doesnt matter if light car or heavy suv, its if theres standing water on the road, running water isn't as bad or if its wet it doesnt matter as much, its the standing water in the ruts on crappy roads that causes you to hydroplane

yeah, acouple years ago like a week before christmas my parent rolled their chrysler concord on tenant way(juss past the train tracks headin into longview).....my dad was going like 5 under cause it was pissing and he hit standing water, then slammed into the median and it fliped the car, my mom walked away with no scratches or bruises, but my dad had a big cut on his forhead, made his bald spot bigger, i guess his head was draging on the grounf for atleast 30 feet....all my dad had was stiches on his head and some road rash on his arms...the doctors at the hospital couldn't believe he didn't get brain damage...the drivers side of the car was smashed way down, if it was a convertable i bet he wouldn't of made it...thank god he was ok....but the shitty thing about it was the cop gave him a ticket for speeding, said he was going too fast in that type of weather condition, talk about a slap in the face..."hey you juss fucked your car up, got medical bills, and heres a $200 ticket to go on top of that"
