If your car starts to skid,

You can prevent skids by driving slowly and carefully, especially on curves. If you find yourself in a skid, remain calm, ease your foot off the gas, and carefully steer in the direction in which you want the car to go. And do not brake if your vehicle is not equipped with anti-lock brakes (ABS). This procedure, known as “steering into the skid,” will bring the rear end of your car in line with the front.
