What do you do if your car goes into a slide on rainy roads?

Do not panic. Get your foot out of the throttle. Loosen your grip on the steering wheel, but let your hands slide easily on the wheel. This will let the car's steer tires straighten out, and save your wrists and fingers from injury or sprains if the front wheel whips back. When the car straightens out lightly touch the brakes. Do not hit the brakes in a slide, this will caise the wheels to lock up and send you into a spin and possiblY a rollover. But, most importantly DO NOT PANIC AND GET OUT OF THE THROTTLE.
