Control Of A Vehicle; Braking - Chevrolet 1994 S-10 Pickup Owner's Manual

Control of a Vehicle
You have three systems that make your vehicle go where
you want it to go.
They are the brakes, the steering and the accelerator. All three systems have
to do their work at the places where the tires meet the road.
Sometimes, as when you're driving on snow or ice, it's easy to ask more of
those control systems than the tires and road can provide. That means you
can lose control of your vehicle.
