Your wheels don't lose control. You lose control, when the wheels lose traction.

On normal pavement it's called a skid or spin. When you completely go off and your car fish-tails (it slides so violently it spins around the other way quickly); it's then called a spin out.

A squeal is when you turn too fast, are on a road with a lot of slick tar, or have bad tires and they make a feedback squealing noise. It's is also when you take off too fast and the tires spin in place because they could not hold traction because the they are spinning to fast. Squealing the tires (or doing a burnout) is prohibited in many places as a driving hazard (for you need to be mashing the accelerator) and a noise violation. (its very loud)

If your driving on water (rain, etc, it's all the same) and you loose control, it's called a hydroplane. (hydro = water) It happens when water gets between your car's wheels and the road and your car is suddenly suspended on water and you lose complete control. It's caused when your going too fast and your tires cannot push water away fast enough, or when there's a slick puddle. (be careful for dirt/dust/grime on the road can combine with normal rain causing extra slick roadways in a sprinkle of rain)

I boldfaced the actual phrases in case your in a hurry or do not wish to read it all.

How do you name Loss of traction between rear wheels and road surface?

The loss of traction between the rear wheels and the road surface is commonly referred to as "oversteer." This occurs when the rear wheels lose grip, causing the rear of the vehicle to swing out or slide, often resulting in a loss of control. Oversteer can be particularly dangerous in slippery conditions or during sharp turns. It is the opposite of "understeer," where the front wheels lose traction.

What kind of skid occurs when brakes are applied so hard that front or rear wheels lose traction?

The type of skid that occurs when brakes are applied so hard that the front or rear wheels lose traction is called a "brake skid." In a brake skid, the wheels lock up, causing the vehicle to slide without steering control. This can happen if the brakes are applied too forcefully, especially on slippery surfaces. It's important to modulate braking pressure to maintain traction and control.

What types of skid occur when the brakes are applied so hard that the front or rear wheels lose traction?

When brakes are applied too hard and wheels lose traction, two main types of skids can occur: front-wheel skid and rear-wheel skid. A front-wheel skid happens when the front wheels lose grip, causing the vehicle to slide straight ahead, often leading to understeering. In contrast, a rear-wheel skid occurs when the rear wheels lose traction, resulting in oversteering, where the rear of the vehicle swings out. Both types can compromise vehicle control and increase the risk of accidents.
