Prompt, effective action is crucial when tractor-trailers start to skid, for jackknifing may easily result. This program explains how most skids can be avoided, even in less than ideal conditions. When skidding is unavoidable, as it sometimes is, the program demonstrates in detail how to handle front-wheel, trailer-wheel and drive-axle skids; all-wheel skids; power skids; spinouts; and hydroplaning. Proven techniques for recovering from both tractor and trailer jakcknifes are documented.
