It is amazing how much the tire tread matters. I need 2 new ones on my Accord... driving on 471 last week during the Reds rainout was scary shit.

In 92' during the monsoon of a game with Illinois and OSU I was driving on I 71 south when a lady in a beat up early 80's thunderbird flew by me and I was doing 60. No sooner had she passed me that she changed lanes and proceeded to do a 720 spin! Luckily she stopped in the outside of the lane facing forward and no one hit her. When I went by she had the wheel gripped in terror and the look on her face was priceless! My wife has a 2012 Buick Enclave with 12,000 miles on it with Michelin tires and on I 74 on way home from Myrtel I changed lanes that were under repair and it had just stopped raining had a valley between the two and the car started to hydro, my sphincter puckered doing 80! lol

Some pertinent information to this story:
1) I was drinking a tall boy whilst this happened (although it had no effect on it)
2) I posted this thread right after it happened, whilst still driving.

I have to be cautious in my Jeep as my tires are worn. I don't want to get new tires until it is lifted, which should be sometime this summer. So it's slow in the rain for me, but I only travel 2.3 miles to work at speeds of 35mph or lessvdubb96;1470394 wrote:Buy new tires. Hope this helps.

Taking curves in a Wrangler with junk tires = bad things.

The result of someone hydroplaning into a house beside my apt yesterday (note, it wasn't the black car that hit it)

Lost my last car travelling east on I-70 from Columbus, right above Livingston Road. Light rain, but light for a while. Speed: 45 mph, and being passed as if I was coasting. Tire tread: fair. Couldn't see Lincoln's head. Back end just left me as I was taking the bend. Somehow avoided two cars, and a third car avoided me. I hit the bridge wall, completed the 360, then pulled over. Air bag deployed, front end resembled an accordion, and I was leaking fluid. After about 5 minutes of assessing the situation I said "Screw it!" and drove the roughly 5 miles to my dad's house.
Whatevs.

I am a responsible driver so this has never happened to me.
Hope this helps.

I did it once while driving I-95 north out of Jacksonville, Fl. Needless to say, I totaled my truck.

I've never had it happen to me for a long enough duration to lose control. It has happened to me long enough for me to tense up.
