I have been reading the answers looking for this. Driver training has taught us this over the years. You can take some corrective action when having an issue with front tire/tires by steering, but cannot with rears.


Apparently you were absent during the whole “steer in the direction of skid” portion of driver’s training ?
Yes, I went for coffee. Thanks for setting me straight.

Steer in direction of skid if my rear tires lose traction.

There are scenarios in which you would rather have better ones in front. This is just generally speaking.


Facts are stubborn things.
