You have allowed the wheels of your vehicle to run off the edge of the pavement. What should you do first?

Question

If your vehicle leaves the roadway, hold the steering wheel firmly, release the gas pedal, and gently apply the brakes. Wait until your speed has reduced, check the traffic, and look for a place to safely return to the roadway by merging back into traffic. Overcompensating by jerking the wheel to return to the roadway can cause you to lose control of your vehicle or may cause your car to go into other lanes of traffic.

Hold the steering wheel firmly, release the gas pedal, and gently apply the brakes.
