If the rear of a vehicle begins to skid, where should the driver steer?
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: Toward the way you want the front of the vehicle to go.
Why
Looking and steering toward the intended path helps realign the tires; avoid adding braking that worsens the skid.
