May be worth watching!! But not at a snale pace. My "puter?? Plays about two seconds-stops- several seconds later plays 2seconds then ---
I never put on the brakes - take foot off gas pedel -wrap both arms/hands around sterring whell and try to keep it steady. Let it come to a slow stop(coasting). If time - i put the tranny in a lower gear. So far so good!! Luck?? But i'm always ready to learn something better - If it is!!

OK, Quickie 101,, re:video, never hit the brakes, vehicle will travel toward side w/flat.. never take foot off gas , same thing will occur..Hit the gas to keep vehicle going straight, make steering correction, gradually lift off throttle when it is safe to pull over..
Anyone see more pls. add for dialup users,,
Thanks, Ted O.
