[Tervuren]

Here in the Carolina's, we had several years with very very little rain. This spring the storms finally hit, I'd being going south from a race track on I-85 and see all lanes at a complete stop on the other side when it was really heavy. Every other car had their hazards on, some where stopped under bridges(I guess they had leaky roofs), and all kinds of crazyness. 55-60MPH on decent tires would of still been possible if people knew how to drive and see in the wet. I will admit though, that time I saw the oncoming traffic at full stop, my car was losing grip at 60MPH. Thing is though, I know its momentum will keep it going straight when I hydroplane, I downshift for a little rear wheel drag if I need to, and the banking on the interstates can still keep your car turning even when the grip disappears, so long as you aren't speeding. If don't think the banking is sufficient, I lift a little just in case. If I feel no confidence in the drivers around me, I slow down to their speed and leave a very nice distance until I feel I can safely move around them with several lanes between me and them. It was crazy though, I'd never seen the like with what the thunderstorms where doing to traffic. I can totally see how LA would have that many wrecks jump!
