When your vehicle's wheels drift onto the shoulder of the road, slowing down and regaining control is the safest and most appropriate action to take. This approach allows you to assess the situation without putting yourself or others at risk. By slowing down, you can carefully maneuver your vehicle back onto the road without making sudden or erratic movements that could lead to loss of control or an accident.

Accelerating back onto the road can result in losing grip on the surface and increases the likelihood of losing control, which can be dangerous. Turning back onto the pavement right away is risky, as it may lead to swerving back onto the road unsafely. Stopping immediately could also pose a danger if you're on a busy road, potentially causing a collision from vehicles behind you that may not be able to stop in time. Therefore, the best course of action is to slow down, regain control, and then safely merge back onto the pavement when it is clear to do so.
