That In the case of a skid
particularly n caused by the
slipping of the rear wheels,
rather than the front ones-the
worst possible thing to do is to
apply the brakes. The amateur
drivers first impulse when any
thing unforeseen happens is to
press down hard with both feet,
dlsengaging the clutch and at the
same time applying the full
force of the foot-brake. This
double action upon the rear
wheel only accentuates the skid
and causes him to have far less
control of his car than If he had
kept his feet off either pedal.
The best course to take is to
allow the ear to coast, at the
same time attempting to steer
the car in the same direction in
which the rear end of the car is
skiddlng. Then, If it Is impera-
tive that the a be stopped to
avoid a collision, press the foot
brake slowly and the car will
respond almost instantly. The
best possible preventive of skid
ding, however, is care in driving
and a refusal to take chances on
wet pavements, especially when
turning a corner.
