A slide often happens when you are driving too fast on an icy road. Fortunately, this is something that you can correct in a few steps. Braking is something that you will need to avoid doing. This can worsen the slide. You should take your foot off of the gas pedal and turn your steering wheel the same way the slide is going. For example, if your car is going right, then this is direction that you will need to turn the steering wheel. Your car may try to swing back in the other direction, so you may have to steer several times.
Additionally, it is important for you to avoid oversteering. This can cause your vehicle to rotate, and you may not be able to counter it. Allow your vehicle to slow down gradually and come to a stop and remain calm.
