If you start to skid,

Explanation

If your rear wheels start to skid, stay calm, ease your foot off the gas, and carefully steer in the direction of the skid. In other words, if the rear of your vehicle skids left, steer left; if the rear of your vehicle skids right, steer right. Avoid braking. The vehicle may possibly overshoot and start to skid in the opposite direction. To prevent this, steer in the opposite direction as soon as your vehicle starts to straighten out. This procedure, known as ?steering into the skid,? will bring the rear of your vehicle into line with the front.
