The chain flies away, and your engine doesn’t have a connection to the rear wheel.
Relax.
You just quit twisting the throttle, you can’t do anything there anyway.

Now that you have learned it. The muscle memory should kick in once the scenario calls for it.

Try to increase your speed before initiating a skid.
Turn on your flashers, and signal to pull over to the right. Use your right hand if you need to.
And at that point, depending of your speed, you also need some kind of luck.

Use both of your brakes to slow down, and finally pull over.
