Why should you test your brakes after this hazard?
A ford is a crossing over a stream that’s shallow enough to drive or ride through. After you’ve gone through a ford or deep puddle, your brakes will be wet and they will not work as well as usual. To dry them out, apply a light brake pressure while moving slowly. Do not travel at normal speeds until you're sure your brakes are working properly again.
