Studying For Driver’s Ed Test, Need Explanation About Skidding?

October 4, 2009

If you find yourself in a skid:
* Slowly ease your foot off the accelerator.
* Turn the steering wheel in the direction the rear of the car is skidding.
* As soon as the vehicle’s path begins to straighten, turn the steering wheel back the other way so you will not over-steer.
The section about skidding says ^^^ that.
However, I’m slightly confused about just which way the wheel is supposed to turn. In fact, if the car is spinning in, say, a clockwise direction, then does that mean the back of the car is spinning to the right or to the left?
Please help, I’m sure you can understand why I want to pass this test. Thank you!
