Your car begins to skid on a slippery road. What should you do?
A blue sedan is yawed slightly toward the upper right on a wet two-way road, with its rear displaced toward the near side.
Correct answer: Ease off the gas and steer where you want to go.
Why
Ease off the accelerator, avoid braking if possible and steer toward the intended path. Do not overcorrect. If a collision is imminent, use the appropriate emergency-braking technique for the vehicle, including firm continuous pressure with working four-wheel ABS.
