Skidding - What Is A Skid
Before taking this lesson, please read and agree to our Terms and Conditions
Skidding is when the tyres no longer grip the road. It can involve complete loss of control, so before learning the emergency stop itself, it’s important to understand skidding and how to deal with it.
There are three basic types of skid: Front wheel skid, rear wheel skid, four wheel skid. In all cases, it means the wheels concerned are no longer gripping the road. How we know we are skidding depends on the type of skid.
