HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD Learn to safely control skidding or sliding by practicing at low speeds and on level, smooth terrain. On extremely slippery surfaces, such as ice, go slowly and be very cautious in order to reduce the chance of skidding or sliding out of control. With practice, over a period of time, skill at controlled sliding can be developed.

If your ATV starts to slide sideways: Steer in the direction of the slide if you have the room. Applying the brakes or accelerating is not recommended until you have corrected the slide. (See page 7-27.) If your ATV can’t make it up a hill you are trying to climb: Turn the ATV around if you still have forward speed.
