I learnt to handle a car by "hooning" in the dirt, in the wet in places where no one was around ie I could only break my own car. It is now illegal to learn these skills ie how to control a rear end slide as you can only do this by experience. Sad example I never taught my daughter how to control a rear end slide. She was doing a right hand turn at an intersection (wet road) when halfway through the turn the auto trans kicked into second causing the rear to slide a bit. She put on the brakes making things worse and hit the gaurd rail. Result, smashed car, $300 towtuck bill and to top it off $300 fine from the wollipers for not having control of her vehicle.
