How to Get off a Slippery Boat Ramp
Put the car in 1st gear.
Step-by-Step Guide

Step 1: Put the car in 1st gear.
On Automatic cars just put the Shift Handle all the way down to 1 or L in some cars.
Give it gas and hold the brake a little too so you won't slide back into the water.
Give enough gas to get the wheels spinning real fast but don't over rev your engine.
Watch the RPM meter to make sure it doesn't redline.
Shortly your vehicle should start inching forward up the ramp.
If you're still not moving then let off the gas and hold the brake.
Then slowly give it gas trying not to burnout.
If all this fails then you'll need to find someone that's capable of pulling you out.
