You make it sound like aquaplaning for you is a given.
Maybe you should find out why you do it and fix it.
Even when I had literally bald tyres I never aqua'd. Why? Because I drove to the condition of my car, not the condition of the road. Sure the condition of the road does count, but my point is you have to also know the condition of your car to be able to fully "drive to the condition of the road".
But I rectified that 4-5 months ago and got 4 new tyres all round, and on wednesday when it rained up here I finally got the feeling they had paid for themselves. Those dunlop GP's I got have superior water dispersal I found. 4 main grooves is good. Aside from the big discount I got on them, I decided on them because I liked the look of the tread.
I saw/heard so many crashes that day it wasn't funny. Actually, one thing I did see that should make everyone's day is while going southbound on the gateway near the brackenridge area with that pedestrian footbridge, there was a rolled magna (Old boxy POS thing (arn't they all? ) ). It had somehow jumped the guardrails and was in the middle of the "island" seperating the north/south lanes. I'm still baffled on how it did it. There was a dent in the rail just before the car itself. It had just neatly flung itself over the rail and off the road to be left sitting on it's roof. Hopefully another old pus-bucket is off the streets. I actually wish I could have stopped and seen to how they were going to get it out because it had guardrails on each side of it.
Oh yea, I also don't know if it was expected to be lots of crashes or not, but the night before (tuesday), I was coming home from boondal onto the gateway, and there were 3 flatbed tow trucks just sitting off the side of the road on the highway entry. We joked at the time that they must be getting ready for a crash.
