Default Violent shaking when the tires spin on wet pavement

I just noticed that when I am on a slick street and my tires spin, the anti spin light flashes on and off and I feel a strong vibration while the tire slips. It doesn't seem natural.

Is this how the anti spin function works? The vibration is almost like the tires are hopping up and down. Very strange and concerning.

Then later the Check VSC light came off. Then went off the next day.

A whole lot of not-so-good vibrations everywhere for you

Yes, that is normal, happens to me too when I want to peel off in wet conditions, that's just anti-slip system kicking in. There is waaaay too much power on the front wheels for the tires we have and trying to lay it down
