What effect does a wet road surface have on a vehicle?s braking ability?

It makes no difference to the required braking distance.
Modern tyres provide grip on a wet road as effectively as on a dry road.
Generally, it doubles the braking distance of that required on a dry surface.
It reduces the braking distance of that required on a dry surface.

Explantion: When it is wet, your tyres do not grip the road surface as well as when it is dry and your stopping distance is increased. For these reasons you should slow down during or after rain and keep a greater distance from the vehicle in front.
