Rules of the Road

Your vehicle begins to skid on an icy road. What should you do?

Ontario road sign — Ease off the accelerator or brake, and steer in the direction you want to go
Show Answer & Explanation
Correct Answer: B. Ease off the accelerator or brake, and steer in the direction you want to go

Hard braking locks wheels and prolongs the skid. Easing off and steering where you want to go uses your remaining traction to regain control. Look where you want to go — the hands follow the eyes.

Why the other answers are wrong

  • A.Slam the brakes hardHard braking removes traction and prolongs the skid — the opposite of safe recovery.
  • C.Speed up to pull through the skidSpeeding does not pull you through a skid; it extends the loss of control.
  • D.Grip the wheel and hold your directionHolding your current direction through a skid does not steer you out; active steering toward your target is required.
