The present invention extends to methods, systems, and computer program products for controlling skidding vehicles. In general, a vehicle adjusts its configuration to mitigate the skidding. The vehicle can recognize dynamic skid situations and apply strategies to avoid an accident. In response to a signal that a vehicle is in a specified type of skid, the vehicle's configuration can be automatically changed to recover from the skid. Different configuration changes can be used to recover from different skid types, including: oversteer, understeer and counter steer. Changing vehicle configuration can include utilizing vehicle systems such as, for example, steering, braking, cruise control, lane keeping, etc.
