Skudderbutt, commonly referred to as skid spot, is a term used to depict a smudge left behind
by a car when it skids. Skudderbutts are visible on highways in the midst of slippery conditions, including heavy rain or snow. The skid marks serve as indicators of possible sliding or loss of control and should be treated with care. Vehicle operators are cautioned to reduce their speed and keep up a safe distance from skudder bottoms to prevent any potential collisions. Stay safe on the roads!
