Pump the brakes gently
Electronic Slip protection is used in conjunction with ABS braking, it is meant to help the braking process on ice and in slippery road conditions!
A car slides when braking because the friction between the tires and the road decreases, causing the tires to lose grip and skid. This can happen if the brakes are applied too forcefully or if the road surface is slippery.
This spot is prone to being slippery with out warning. BE CAREFULL!
A dry road is most slippery right after it starts raining. Of course any road is most slippery when it is covered in ice.
The best way to prevent skidding on a slippery road surface is to drive at a safe speed for the conditions, avoid sudden braking or acceleration, and maintain a safe following distance from other vehicles. Additionally, using winter tires or tire chains can improve traction on icy or snowy roads.
During poor/slippery driving conditions on or off the road when more traction is needed. Keep in mind that using 4 wheel drive does not improve braking.
Retarders, such as engine brakes or exhaust brakes, help slow down a vehicle by decreasing its speed without relying solely on the traditional braking system. While they can assist in maintaining control on slippery roads, they do not prevent sliding entirely. Proper use of retarders, combined with reduced speed and gentle steering, can enhance safety, but drivers should still exercise caution, as slippery conditions can lead to loss of traction regardless of the braking method used.
Yes, braking distances are generally longer on slippery surfaces, even with vehicles equipped with ABS (Anti-lock Braking System). While ABS helps maintain steering control and prevents wheel lock-up during hard braking, it does not improve the inherent traction between the tires and the slippery surface. Consequently, the reduced grip means that vehicles will still take longer to stop compared to dry conditions.

it is icy and then sanded
