How do you brake after getting the tram out of a skid?

Explanation

Correct answer: With less force so as to prevent further locking of the wheels.

A skid is most commonly caused by the wheels locking up and a loss of grip. After recovering from a skid, you should brake with less force to effectively reduce speed without the risk of the wheels locking up again, which could cause another skid and a loss of control of the vehicle.
