What’s the minimum distance you should allow for braking when it’s raining heavily?

Explanation: If you're travelling in heavy rain, you should be aware that it could take twice as long for you to stop as it would in dry weather. Increase your distance from the vehicle in front to allow for the longer stopping distance.
