Solution

  1. The roads become wet on rainy days, hence the friction between road and tyres gets reduced.
  2. Friction is defined as the resistance offered by the surfaces that are in contact when they move past each other.
  3. Due to less friction, it is hard to stop the vehicle instantly.

Hence, it is advised to drive carefully on wet roads on rainy days
