Best Answer

Depends a bit on conditions and whether you are driving a front or rear-wheel drive vehicle. Generally speaking, you should steer into the skid, and lift off throttle (in rear-wheel drive). In front-wheel drive, do not lift off throttle completely, but keep power on to pull you out of the skid. Obviously, as the car comes out of the skid, straighten the steering.

On ice, it is possible at low speed to control the skid by balancing the understeer generated by the front wheels by creating oversteer pulling on the handbrake. This can ONLY be done on front-wheel drive cars, AND AT LOW SPEED!.

Explain why ears skid on curves when the road is icy?

Ears do not skid on icy roads; however, cars can skid due to reduced friction between the tires and the icy road surface. When a vehicle takes a curve too fast on ice, the tires lose traction and can slide, causing the car to skid. This is due to the lack of grip between the tires and the icy surface, leading to loss of control.
