Rain Changes the Road

By David M. · Data Lead · October 4, 2026

Rain can hide potholes, reduce tyre grip and make pedestrians harder to see. Slow down, increase following distance and use lights appropriately.

If a road becomes flooded or damaged, report the hazard so other road users can plan safely.

Wet roads, standing water and reduced visibility require a different driving approach.
