You are driving on an icy two-way, four-lane street. You see a vehicle not equipped with anti-lock brakes. You should:

Explanation:
On icy roads, a vehicle without anti-lock brakes can skid if you brake hard. The best response is to brake softly and steer toward an open space to maintain traction and control. Slamming on the brakes risks wheel lock and a skid, making it hard to steer. Swerve quickly can break traction and spin you out. Stopping immediately is often unrealistic and can still lock the wheels as you halt. So, light braking plus steering to a clear area lets you reduce speed while keeping control of the direction.
