Vehicles easily skid when braking on icy and snowy roads, so drive at low speed and use engine braking to slow down.

ANSWER · A

Icy and snowy roads are very slippery. Emergency braking is not recommended; reduce speed and make full use of engine braking. Engine braking works by keeping the car in gear (not neutral) and releasing the accelerator, so the engine slows the car through compression. Regular braking, by contrast, uses the brake pedal to apply friction between brake pads and disc or drum.
