Not a miracle really, just a matter of regaining some traction. A bit of gas can help too depending on the circumstances. But whatever you do, despite the conditioning we have all been subjected to about ABS, let off the brakes when you sense that the car is sliding on all fours. Locked wheels are the least useful of all the possible scenarios.
