Safe DrivingPregunta 45 de 120
Your drive wheels begin to skid when you brake hard on a slick surface. What is the correct recovery?
a.Release the brakes to let the wheels roll again, push in the clutch, and steer in the direction you want the vehicle to go
b.Brake harder to force the wheels to grip
c.Set the parking brake to straighten the vehicle
d.Accelerate to pull the trailer straight
Explicación
A locked wheel cannot steer, so you must let it turn again before steering will do anything, and countersteering brings the rear back in line. Braking harder deepens the skid, the parking brake locks the drive axle, and accelerating in a skid worsens the loss of traction.
