This story was made up by someone dumb enough not to know what hydro planning is.
It just means yout tires are riding on the surface of the water not through the water ,which gives you a reduction in traction . No traction = no control ,not hydroplane and call a stewardess as it is more than impossible for a normal car to create lift. Unless it is toysrme's with the airplanewing under the engine for a diffuser.
