California Driver License (DMV) Written Practice Test

Question: 1 / 570

If your vehicle starts to skid, you should:

Pull your parking brake

Take your foot off the gas

If your vehicle starts to skid, taking your foot off the gas is the best action to regain control. Steering in the opposite direction (C) may actually worsen the skid, as well as pulling the parking brake (A). Honking your horn (D) will not help with the skid and may distract you from taking the appropriate actions. It is important to remain calm and not panic to safely maneuver through the skid.
