If your TCS system is off, then an acceleration skid

is also best handled by easing your foot off the

accelerator pedal.

If your vehicle starts to slide, ease your foot off the

accelerator pedal and quickly steer the way you want the

vehicle to go. If you start steering quickly enough, your

vehicle may straighten out. Always be ready for a

second skid if it occurs.

Of course, traction is reduced when water, snow, ice,

gravel or other material is on the road. For safety, you’ll

want to slow down and adjust your driving to these

conditions. It is important to slow down on slippery

surfaces because stopping distance will be longer and

vehicle control more limited.

While driving on a surface with reduced traction, try

your best to avoid sudden steering, acceleration or

braking (including engine braking by shifting to a lower

gear). Any sudden changes could cause the tires to slide.

You may not realize the surface is slippery until your

vehicle is skidding. 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.

Remember: Any anti

-lock brake system (ABS) helps

avoid only the braking skid.

Driving at Night

Night driving is more dangerous than day driving.

One reason is that some drivers are likely to be

impaired

-- by alcohol or drugs, with night vision

problems, or by fatigue.
