Step 1
At the first sign that your rear tires have broken free and are providing no traction, take your foot off of the accelerator. This will automatically reduce your speed and often times will be all you need to do to regain control of your vehicle.
Step 1a
Do not apply your brakes whilst skidding this will only make matters far worse.
Step 2
Without over-reacting, slowly turn the steering wheel in the direction that the rear end is moving. For instance, if the rear end of the car is fishtailing to the left, steer to the left.
Step 3
Try not to overcompensate with steering. If the car's rear end begins to fishtail to the other side, slowly steer in that direction.
Step 4
It is common for the rear end to fishtail to the left and right multiple times. Stay calm and continue to steer in the direction of the rear end until the car's path straightens out.
Step 5
If necessary, stop the vehicle after it has righted itself and collect your thoughts. If you suspect that your vehicle has hit something, put the vehicle in Park, turn off the engine and inspect the vehicle for damage.
Try to maintain your composure during the spin-out.
Keep your eyes open for other traffic. It is imperative to avoid hitting another vehicle if at all possible.
Don't over react to the situation. Make gradual corrections
Never accelerate during a spin. It will only make matters worse.
