[True / False · Medium]
Answer: False
Explanation
The Rules of the Road (5) states: "When the rear wheels begin to skid, you must not apply the brakes. First release the accelerator and at the same time use the steering wheel to straighten the vehicle's direction." Applying the brakes is an incorrect action. Releasing the accelerator is correct.
