I thought it would be during a heavy rainstorm. My wife took the test moments later - she got 95% too - and she got this particular question right.
That's the only one I got wrong as well.

Then i thought about it and remembered back to my driver training days nearly 20 years ago. The road is most slippery at the beginning of a rain as that is the time when the oils in the road are brought to the surface. These oils run off/breakdown as the rain continues leaving a less slick road.
