Correct answer
- BModerar la velocidad y detenerse, si es necesario.moderate your speed and stop if necessary.
When you drive in heavy rain like in the picture, you should brake more gently to stop the wheels from skidding, because a wet carriageway gives less grip than a dry one. You should also moderate your speed so that you have more time to react to an obstacle, even stopping the vehicle if necessary, and keep a greater safe distance from the vehicle in front to avoid a collision.
