Hydroplaning happens when a tire comes into contact with more water than it can dispell.

Water pressure at the front of the wheels pushes water underneath the tires, creating a barrier between the roadway and the tire. As a result, your car loses traction and you lose both braking and steering control. Hydroplaning becomes more likely as a tire loses its tread.
