Why is it difficult to see the road while driving in the rain?

Pooling water tends to turn rough surfaces into smooth ones, and diffuse reflection into specular reflection. Driving at night on a wet road is made even more difficult by an additional consequence of specular reflection. These do increase road visibility; however, they don’t affect the extra oncoming-car glare.

What should you do if you drive through a lot of water or big puddle?

Why is it easier to see when you are driving at night on a rough and dry road rather than on a wet road?

When the road is covered with rain, the water provides a smoother surface, which reflects more light. That is the primary reason it is so much harder to see the road at night when its wet. When the road is dry, there is true reflection from the surface of the road, which makes it easier to see.

Will my car be OK after driving through water?

Water in the intake system ultimately gets into the cylinders, in which pistons compress air. But water doesn’t compress, and the resulting pressure inside the engine can bend piston rods or crack the engine block. Either essentially ruins the engine. Transmission.
