Same reason you fall when its 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.
I think its so that the car doesn't skid on icy raods
you could exceed the traction of your tires and lose control and skid or flip
A car skidding on an icy road will exhibit kinetic friction, which is the force that resists the motion of two surfaces sliding against each other. The low coefficient of friction between the icy road and the car's tires makes it easier for the car to skid.
The first person to skid on an icy road
The past tense of skid is skidded. Your car may skid in the rain. My car skidded across the intersection.
When a car skids, the rear end of the car is coming around, a counter skid is when you counter that first skid in an attempt to correct the skid.
Oversteering?
ABC brakes will leave skid marks during icy road conditions because of its slippery nature. ABS keeps brakes from locking up but does not prevent tires from sliding on ice.
you just did by using it in that question The bus went into a skid on the icy road.
What type of driveway? Was it a curving and could not see the car before rounding the curve? Is it straight; then why did you not see the car blocking the driveway before even getting into car and/or backing..
