Zorluk: KolaySkidding Causes and Correction

When a vehicle begins to skid on a slippery road, applying sudden and harsh pressure to the footbrake helps restore steering control.

Cevap: Cevap

Cevap

False. Applying sudden, harsh braking during a skid worsens the loss of traction and removes steering control.
The statement is false because applying sudden, heavy braking when a car is skidding removes any remaining tyre grip, preventing steering control. According to DVSA guidance, drivers must release the footbrake and steer smoothly into the direction of the slide to regain control.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the mechanical effect of harsh braking during a skid.
Sudden hard braking overpowers tyre grip and causes the wheels to lock or slide.
Tyres that are sliding or locked have zero directional steering capability.
2
Identify the standard DVSA skid recovery procedure.
The driver must release the footbrake and steer smoothly into the direction of the skid.
Releasing brake pressure allows the tyres to rotate again and re-establish grip with the road surface.
3
Evaluate the statement in the stem.
The statement claims harsh braking restores steering control, which is false.
Harsh braking causes a complete loss of steering control rather than restoring it.
