Why do people brake better in wet weather than in dry weather?

We can't give the correct answer to the above situation. It should be that the braking effect is not as good as that in dry weather. Technically speaking, the total braking force generated by the wheel can only be less than or equal to the adhesion between the wheel and the road surface. The adhesion between wheels and pavement mainly depends on the adhesion coefficient, which is closely related to the climatic conditions of pavement. For example, if the adhesion coefficient of dry asphalt pavement is 0.6 and the adhesion coefficient of wet asphalt pavement is reduced to 0.4, that is, 1/3, then the braking distance will change greatly. Therefore, in wet weather, the friction coefficient between tire and road surface is not as good as that in dry weather, so the effect is even worse.
