In Ireland, the legal minimum tyre tread depth for cars is 1.6mm across the central three-quarters of the tread width, and around the entire circumference of the tyre. Driving with less than this can result in penalty points and fines.
Incorrect tyre pressure, whether under or over-inflated, significantly reduces the tyre's contact patch with the road. On wet roads, this loss of grip can dramatically increase stopping distances and the risk of aquaplaning, making the vehicle much harder to control.
If your car aquaplanes, you should ease off the accelerator and keep the steering wheel pointed straight in the direction you want to go. Do not brake sharply or make sudden steering movements. Wait for the tyres to regain grip before gently applying the accelerator again.
On wet roads, stopping distances can be at least double those on dry roads. This is due to reduced friction between the tyres and the road surface. The RSA advises drivers to maintain a greater following distance and reduce speed in wet conditions.
The RSA's 'Rules of the Road' advise drivers to slow down, increase following distances, use dipped headlights (even during the day), and be extra vigilant for vulnerable road users like cyclists and pedestrians. Avoid sudden braking or steering manoeuvres in heavy rain.
By completing Tyres & Wet Grip, you will gain stronger rule knowledge, faster recognition of signs and situations, better decision making in traffic scenarios, and increased accuracy on exam style questions used in Ireland. These outcomes directly support higher scoring exam performance.
