Last night I returned back home after picking up my mom. It was about 140 km and it was pouring rain. I drive slowly and left enough gap to Tha vehicle in front. I braked gently and also avoided swerving. If a vehicle was driving at similar speed to mine I stuck behind it and used it as a guide. The visibility was poor even on the highway, but I made it safely. What are your tips for driving in the rain.

My biggest advice for driving in the rain is slow down and don't use your cruise control.

@pitstop My son was driving in the rain with cruise on, hit a patch of standing water, hydroplaned and hit a fence. Thank God he didn't get hurt, but the cruise control tried to accelerate.
