Correct answer
Reduce speed and increase the safety distance
Reduce speed and increase the safety distance to account for reduced grip and visibility. Wet roads can lengthen braking distance. Knowing the road does not remove that risk. Aim to reduce speed before entering a bend and avoid abrupt manoeuvres; this does not mean braking sharply at every bend or refusing to brake in an emergency. Articles 45 and 54 require adapting speed and keeping sufficient separation to avoid a collision.
