A2Difficulty 3/5

You are riding your motorcycle on a carriageway covered with water. Is there a risk of aquaplaning?

Correct answer

Yes, especially if I am travelling at high speed.

Aquaplaning is a phenomenon caused by rain in which the motorcycle's tyres lose contact with the road surface because they cannot disperse all the water on it. It occurs especially when travelling at high speed.
