Hydroplaning Accidents

The reason roads are called highways dates back to Roman times, when roads were built high so that excess water would safely drain away.

Pooling water on roads is still a serious problem even today. In fact, hydroplaning accidents commonly arise due to pooling water on improperly constructed roadways. This can cause a car’s tires to hydroplane, resulting in a loss of control by the driver. 

Such water pooling and resulting hydroplaning may be caused by defective highway design or by nearby construction activity that causes water to drain onto the road.  Other examples of highway defect or neglect of maintenance cases that lead to hydroplaning may include:

  • Potholes
  • Failure to install guardrails
  • Uneven pavement
  • Objects left on the roadway
  • Lack of signs
