An important part of driving a vehicle is being able to drive it safely in all weather conditions. At Genesis of West Knoxville, we want to ensure that every trip you take in your car ends with a safe arrival at your destination. That's why we offer these simple tips to help you avoid hydroplaning when the roads around Knoxville, TN are wet.
One important tip is to keep your speed in check. Speed limits on roads are set for ideal road conditions, which means you need to decrease your speed significantly when it's raining, or you notice that the roads are wet. It's also important to keep your tires inflated to the recommended pressure. Tires that are overinflated or underinflated can't move moisture as effectively, which puts you at an increased risk of hydroplaning.
If you have any concerns about your vehicle's ability to perform in adverse weather conditions, be sure to stop by our service center today.
