Correct answer
Gently check their response, only when safe.
Check their response with gentle pedal pressure, only in safe conditions without creating risks for others. Moisture can reduce effectiveness; checking does not prevent them getting wet. Avoid harsh braking and follow the vehicle instructions. If their response is inadequate, stop in a safe place and seek help. Do not cross a flooded road to test them or brake during aquaplaning.
