    C.

    Explanation:

    Peril is the risk of being in danger, injured, or destroyed. In short, peril is being exposed to danger.

    Wet pavement becomes slippery which increases the risk of collision. When a pavement gets wet during rain or otherwise, the pavement's surface is covered with a thin layer of oil, water, and dirt.

    Wet pavement is a hazard opposed to a peril. Because wet pavements are not not a peril but driving on wet pavements can be hazardous and lead to the increased chances of vehicle collisions. This can eventually become a cause of loss.

    So, the correct option is C.
