Emergency Situations

On a winter road, you hit a patch of black ice. What is the safest response?

Show Answer & Explanation
Correct Answer: B. Ease off the gas, keep the steering wheel straight, and avoid sudden movements

On black ice, gently ease off the gas and keep the wheel steady. Do not brake hard or steer sharply, as your tires have very little grip. Let the car slow down naturally until you pass through the icy patch.
