HomeMy WebLinkAboutThe Huron Expositor, 1970-05-28, Page 19Summer showers, especially
after a long +dry spell, can
make road surfaces as slippery ,
as winter ice, a special safety
bulletin issued by th3 Rubber
Manufacturers Association
warns.
The danger of skidding is
greatest, says the trade group,
during the first 15 to 30 min-
utes after it starts to rain; up
to an hour or more in a light
drizzle.
This is due to the little-
knoiin fact that rain tends to
float up onto the road surface
a greasy film of oil, gasoline
and rubber residue which be,
comes a treacherous ice-like
lubricant between the tires
and the road until enough rain
falls to wash it' away.
The possibility of an acci-
dent on a wet road, says the
Association, is between 5 and
10 times as great as on a dry
road; in terms of the likelihood
"of a skid and loss of control
of a car.. In terms of stopping
distance, it may take up to
four times as far to stop on. a
wet road as a dry,road.
