While driving a car in the rain the risk of skidding is:

athe highest in the initial stage of the rain.
bthe lowest in the initial stage of the rain.
cthe highest in the final stage of the rain.

Why?

When rain starts, water mixes with dust and oily deposits, creating a slippery layer. This explains why the risk of skidding is greatest early in the rainfall, especially after dry weather. Options B and C overlook this mechanism, although caution is needed throughout the rain.
