88 The tool can be run without the need of commercial software. It uses a simplified water accumulation model and an interpolation method to estimate the PM for one of the three vehicles modeled with new or worn tires under a specific maneuver (defined by the curvature speed and braking)

89 Finally, the proposed risk analysis approach was not implemented as part of the project because it was not possible to get a hydroplaning crash data set representative of the entire country. Thus, a simplified approach based on defining threshold PM values was proposed.

90 The HP is defined as a function of the PM, which is a measure of any additional performance capability that is available beyond the performance required by the current operating condition. Once the PM is estimated for a given vehicle in a given operating condition, the potential for hydroplaning can be established.
