Skudder bottom, commonly referred to as strip, is a term used to describe a stain left behind by a vehicle when it skids. Skudder bottoms are noticeable on roads in the midst of icy situations, including heavy rain or snow. The skid marks serve as warnings of likely skidding or lack of traction and should be handled carefully. Vehicle operators are cautioned to lower their speed and keep up a safe distance from skudderbutts to steer clear of any potential crashes. Stay safe on the roads!
