What should you anticipate while driving, when it starts to rain after a long dry period?

Your answer is correct because when it starts to rain after a long dry period, the road surface can become especially slippery. This happens because oil and other residues that accumulated during dry weather mix with the water, reducing tire grip. Additionally, rain reduces visibility through your helmet visor, making it harder to see clearly. It is not correct to expect a shorter braking distance in these conditions; in fact, braking distances usually increase on wet and slippery roads. Understanding these effects helps you drive more cautiously and adjust your speed and following distance accordingly.
