Correct answer to question 66 (Doubles/Triples): Hold the steering wheel firmly, ease off the accelerator, and keep the combination tracking straight before slowing to stop
Why
A blowout on a rear trailer can pull the combination off line, so holding a firm, steady grip and easing off the gas keeps everything tracking straight while you slow down safely rather than reacting sharply.
