Wow, that's incredible... My dad told me when he taught me to drive "never out drive your line of sight," seems like this is an exaggerated case of people driving beyond the limits of environmental conditions (rain).

once aquaplaning occurs and you realize it,it`s too late
you can only put your foot off the pedal and wait - LOL
you can`t brake and you can`t steer
you can drive very slow to prevent it...that`s right
but this day was horrible...I`ve experienced the flooded Autobahn that day,too...
