Dick Van Dyke is probably not used to driving in these conditions. Remember before the current storms, we used to believe that it never rains in southern California. There was even a song by that name, back in 1972. And here in Kentucky, a wet state by comparison, we get a string of accidents after a dry spell ends.

Endless weeks of nice weather allows a significant amount of oil to collect on street surfaces. The first rain displaces the oil in the pavement with water and the oil floats on top. The surface becomes very slick and dangerous. It's bad for any driver. Slower reflexes at age 97 just magnifies the problem.
