* A car with skidding tires: This is the most common depiction. It shows a car sliding sideways, often with wavy lines representing the slipping tires.
* A car with a sideways skidding symbol and the letters "TCS" or "ASR": TCS stands for Traction Control System and ASR stands for Anti-Slip Regulation. These letters may accompany the skidding car symbol.
* A circle with an exclamation point inside: Sometimes a simpler warning symbol is used.
It's usually illuminated in yellow or amber. If you're unsure, consult your car's owner's manual for the exact location and appearance of your traction control light.
