Driving and Operating
If the vehicle starts to slide,
follow these suggestions:
.
Ease your foot off the
accelerator pedal and steer
the way you want the vehicle
to go. The vehicle may
straighten out. Be ready for
a second skid if it occurs.
.
Slow down and adjust your
driving according to weather
conditions. Stopping
distance can be longer and
vehicle control can be
affected when traction is
reduced by water, snow, ice,
gravel, or other material on
the road. Learn to recognize
warning clues
—
such as
enough water, ice, or packed
snow on the road to make a
mirrored surface
—
and slow
down when you have any
doubt.
.
Try to avoid sudden
steering, acceleration,
or braking, including
reducing vehicle speed by
shifting to a lower gear. Any
sudden changes could cause
the tires to slide.
Remember: Antilock brakes
help avoid only the
braking skid.
