Most important rule: Don't Panic!
When an emergency happens, you'll have a better
chance of handling it safely if you don't let fear take over.
Here are some how-to's in various situations.
If your vehicle suddenly stops responding
to the steering wheel
Ease your foot off the gas pedal Turn your
flashers uncap your foot off the brake for as long as possible. (The
vehicle's natural balance should keep it going straight, but a sudden
change in speed should spin it out of control)
As the vehicle slows, you may brake very
gently to bring it to a stop.
Run as far away as you can in the direction
of the train (if you run the other way your may be hit by debris from
your car which will explode when the train hits it.)
