Car speed is 80 km/h. The road is covered with snow and ice. It is necessary to brake urgently. Please advise the ideal method. And will there be a skid or wheel lock if you brake with the engine with the ignition off, without pressing the brake and clutch, downshifting, and periodically pressing the accelerator.

The described braking method is complete nonsense. There is no point in pressing the gas with the ignition off: on many cars, the steering wheel locks, and the car will simply fly into the nearest tree. And if you downshift without the clutch, you can easily kill the gearbox.
To stop safely on ice, you need to press the brake smoothly and intermittently, not allowing the wheels to lock.
На льоду найкраще гальмувати імпульсами, а двигуном — тільки на низькій передачі, інакше колеса можуть зірвати в юз.
