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.

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.
