Braking will not help in this situation. The best thing to do is to pull the handbrake on hard. This will put the car into a spin, but it will keep moving in a straight line, missing the inside ditch.
Good tip! Altough not for beginners as you say.
But will it work easily when all the electronics are on, or could they end up interfering?
