What should a driver do if too much acceleration makes the drive wheels spin?
Correct answer: Ease off the gas and steer smoothly
Why
For a power skid, take your foot off the gas and look and steer where you want the front of the vehicle to go. Avoid over-correction. After control returns, use gentle acceleration.
