When the first drops fall on the road surface, is it more dangerous to drive?

Correct answer

Yes.

One of the most dangerous moments for a vehicle travelling on a road when it is raining is when the first drops fall, because they mix with the dust and grease on the road surface, making it more slippery and giving the vehicle's tyres less grip.
