If a vehicle’s rear tires skid, a driver should take his or her foot off the gas and steer into the direction the front wheels should go. Keep pressure on the anti-lock brakes, even if they start pulsing. If the rear wheels start to skid, the driver should take their foot off the gas and shift into neutral. Wait to steer until the vehicle slows down. Once the motorist feels traction, he or she can put the car back into gear and slowly accelerate.
