Driving through a heavy rain might make your brakes wet. What may result from this if the brakes are applied?

Through friction, brakes turn the kinetic energy of your moving vehicle into heat. The amount of friction between the brake shoes or pads may decrease if the brakes are wet. Inadequate or sluggish application of the brakes will occur. When you try to brake, your braking distance can lengthen, your car might pull to one side, or the wheels might lock. On a slippery road, locked wheels might cause a skid (or, if you're carrying a trailer, a jackknife).
