No, Hydroplaning is not safe, because when a vehicle is in this condition, there is a "cushion" of water between the tires and the road limiting traction allowing the vehicle to skid out of control.

What speed increment can make a difference between hydroplaning and not hydroplaning?

Hydroplaning can occur when a car’s speed exceeds the water evacuation capacity of its tires, typically around 35-55 mph depending on tire tread depth and road conditions. Driving at speeds below this threshold and ensuring proper tire maintenance can reduce the risk of hydroplaning.

To slide on a wet road surface?

When driving on a wet road surface, it's important to reduce your speed and avoid sudden movements such as braking or accelerating abruptly. Drive in the tracks of the car ahead to avoid hydroplaning, and maintain a safe following distance. In the event of a slide, steer gently in the direction you want to go without overcorrecting.

Could you get a ticket for Hydroplaning?

Yes, you could. Most likely the ticket would be overdriving the road conditions. Second Answer: You could get a ticket for failure to drive defensively and failure to slow down in the rain. The cop would have to see you doing the irresponsible driving that caused the hydroplaning. NO, hydroplaning itself would not be an offence, imagine how hard it would be to spot, You would be prosecuted for the offence that caused you to hydroplain if you had an accident that was found to be caused by it, usually it is caused by low tyre tread. If the rain was particularly bad and the surface water particularly deep then dangerous driving might be the charge if you were driving too fast and crashed.
