Question

  1. what should you do if your car begins to skid?

o turn in the opposite direction of the skid.
o slam on the brakes.
o turn in the direction of the skid and ease off the gas.

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

When a car skids, turning in the direction of the skid (counter - steer) helps realign the wheels with the direction of motion, and easing off the gas reduces the power going to the wheels which can help regain traction. Turning in the opposite direction can make the skid worse, and slamming on the brakes can lock the wheels and also worsen the skid.

Answer:

Turn in the direction of the skid and ease off the gas.
