Because you want to stay on top sand not dig in, Always keep that momentum. Once you are stuck if you press on the gas pedal more, you're just digging yourself into the sand, You should also lower the tire pressure, apperantly we DIDN'T do any of the above and below recommaditions, BTW also do not let your wife drive on the sand as I did , I had playing with the car on sand at least 20 minutes without any problems until I let my wife drive :)))))) ************* Do these : Like any major road trip, it is always a good idea to put your car in for a routine health check. The first thing that you must do before driving on sand is decrease your tyre pressure. The reason you do this is to provide better flotation by increasing the size of your car's "footprint" as this will significantly improve your traction. It will also cut down the amount of strain on your vehicle as well as wear and tear on the tracks. If you don't know what would be the optimal pressure for your car, generally a good pressure to set it at is 15 psi.
