My wife once too slammed her brakes mid-corner, slightly wet road... and got herself into a fishtail. Luckily the cars behind her missed her. The natural tendency for us when we get into trouble is to slam the brakes and turn the steering abruptly - which is a no-no. Somehow it is not easy to go against the natural instinct. Had aquaplaned many times on the NSE, well, was asking for trouble, tyres about 25% left, still running at 100+kmh. But once I feel I am losing traction, I just lift off the accelerator until I regain traction and whack it again. So it was on and off, on and off, until I reached my destination. Guess I have a death wish... hee hee.:stupid:</blockquote>
