Cevap
The driver should keep a firm grip on the steering wheel with both hands and gradually ease off the accelerator pedal without braking hard.
Holding the steering wheel firmly stabilized with both hands while gently easing off the accelerator prevents vehicle spin and allows rolling resistance to slow the car down safely before applying light brakes.
