When moving at a speed below 30 m.p.h. a tire should disperse water under, and around it and Maintain contact with the road.. As ' the speed increases the tires begin to. displace the water, hydro- ' dynamic pressures build up a 'wavelike ,wedge of water right -in front of the tire's point of contact with the road. The size of the wedge increases as the speed increases. Because water refuses to coinpress, eventually the tire can no longer penetrate the wedge and rides up on top Of it like a water ski. That's when traction; steering and control of the car is lost. it is now hydroplaning. It doesn't take Mitch water.' The first few drops of rain mixing with oil, dust and dirt on the road will set up conditions to cause 'viscous' hydroplaning. Even dew or, fog will deposit enough moisture to do the trick. Water covering a road to a depth of even less than one-half inch sets up conditions to' create `dynamic' hydroplaning and is especially dangerous on curves. The greater the speed the greater the chance of hydroplaning.' The only thing to do is to slow down and' increase the distance between you and the car ahead. Heed the highway sign, "Reduce speed ,on wet pavement". Duncan Farrish of Lochalsh returned to his home last Tuesday after being a patient in Victoria Hospital, London, fora week.
