Agreed. That's why it's good to have people pass on knowledge like you did here.

The only other thing I would add for southerners would be about braking. First, going slow like you suggested is super important. Second, you want to brake lightly or even not at all. You should ideally be going slow enough that releasing the accelerator will stop much of your momentum. Third, if you find yourself losing control, you want to tap the breaks and turn onto the spin. If you're going too fast though none of that will matter.
