If you get into a skid it is best to?
Take your foot off of the accelerator but do NOT touch the brake. Steer INTO the direction of the skid. If your rear end is breaking right, steer right. The idea here is to keep the front ahead of the rear. As the vehicle slows you will feel the tires begin to grip the road. When this happens gently apply pressure to the brakes to slow or stop the car. Be very careful not to apply enough pressure lock the brakes. This could put you right back into the skid. Also, when steering into the skid, do so gently. Many people have actually recovered from a skid only to be thrown into a skid in the opposite direction due to overcompensation.
Ford transit warning lights?
A Ford transit light can have different meanings. If this light appears you should take the vehicle to a mechanic as soon as possible to find out the issue.
Does a vehicle with abs leave skid marks when the brakes are applied?
Yes... a vehicle with abs brakes will leave skid marks. Unfortunately they are not what you are used to seeing. They will appear faint and gaped (like a stone skipping across the water), the best way to view them are from a distance and close to the ground. Another way is to use polarized lens on a camera to take pictures. Abs skid marks will only last a day or tow on a lightly travelled road. Hope this answers your question.
