Slip, slide (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

skid

I believe this is a double definition.

'slip' is the first definition.
(I know that skid is a more specific form of the action slip)

'slide' is the second definition.
(I know that skid is a type of slide)

(Other definitions for skid that I've seen before include "Slide, eg, after braking" , "Slip out of control" , "unpredictable motoring event" , "lose control momentarily" , "Uncontrolled slide" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
