My car slipped.

Good day friends.
I just got back from town. My son wanted to buy him t-shirts. I picked him up from the gym and then we went to the store together, where he chose two shirts.
After that, we stopped in some market to buy something from food.
It's raining here and I'm a little nervous, because I'm on the way to the city, I almost landed on the road. There was a little rain, and on one curve my car started to dance on the road, I managed to calm it down and continue driving.
Thank God that nobody was from the opposite direction. I was not scared, but that makes me nervous, because in such a situation I feel helpless.
Are you a caring driver?

I drove a couple of friends to the doctor today and drove their car. I'm a very careful driver and keep in mind the condition of the road. When it's raining or snowing I drive a little slower.

@1hopefulman Yes, I always try to drive carefully, but sometimes I drive faster, not thinking that my car is not for such a ride.

I'm glad you are safe. I always become anxious while driving and could never learn it.

@Nevena83 I think it is the tyres that are worn out

@amitkokiladitya Yes, the tires are really bad. When the snow fell, I could not move the car.

You have to be more careful, these side roads may have mud on the road, then the car can slip. Adjust speed to weather conditions and road

@Nevena83 Theory, I see, you know. Slow down, you will drive maybe 2 min longer

The car skidded on a slippery portion? Was there snow as well? Thankfully we do not face such situation here but in extreme rains we do have to drive over waterlogged roads and at times fear that water might not seep inside the car.

Yes, it was raining and the car slipped.It's terrible, you've often flooded the streets?

I do drive but if its snowing my husband takes me and drops me off when I need to go somewhere. I don't mind rain or snow as long as the roads are clear.

@PainsOnSlate Yes, it's a terrible feeling when you can not hold the car under control.

Why did your car "danced?" Does it has loose brakes? It's good you did not meet an accident.

It was raining, and the tires were very bad and in the curve the car lost control.

I try to be a careful driver, but it's other drivers I worry about. I was hit three times last year from other cars crashing into my truck.

No, it's not fun. Thank God that there was no one, so I did not hit anybody.
