On a wet curve, the rear of your car starts to slide to the right. What should you do?
Blue A enters a wet right curve. A white arrow identifies the stated start of a rear-end slide to the right.
Correct answer: Ease off the gas and steer smoothly where you want the car to go.
Why
A skid means that the tires have lost traction. It happens most often on ice or packed snow, but it can also happen on wet pavement or gravel. Cars with different brakes and drive systems react in different ways, so read your owner's manual for its skid advice.
