Focus your gaze up ahead, look as straight as you can. There’s no point in looking at your skidding tire. You can check your mirrors, but the action of skidding itself is warning enough for the other people following you. Unless they are blind, then you’re dead.
Now that you have learned it. The muscle memory should kick in once the scenario calls for it.
You just quit twisting the throttle, you can’t do anything there anyway.
Why do I feel so lazy every time I get into my room?
Yes, lock it up.
First, relax.
Going back to your scenario 2, your rear wheel is locked up. Relax, and let your muscles remember what to do.

Don’t try to squeeze the clutch either, nothing you can do about it. So don’t even try to change gears, but I do understand that sometimes it’s a force of habit.
You’re speeding at 100km/h on a worn-out chain? It’s kinda your fault really.

In this case:
In that case, just pray and repent your sins.
If you have an extra chain, I assume you know how to fit a new one into your bike. Do it. If not, call a tow truck. Calling a friend is exciting too. I’ll tell you why in a moment.

The chain flies away, and your engine doesn’t have a connection to the rear wheel.
The chain got jammed between the swing arm and the sprocket, or Anywhere for that matter.
This could be tiring, but it’s doable. And you need to have a strong leg.

Try to increase your speed before initiating a skid.
I remember doing this once with my friend. The exact same thing happened to him. His drive chain just snapped and quit, and his rear wheel locked up.

On varying speeds, start with 10 km/h. Purposely lock up your rear wheel.
Scenario 2:
Learn it with a mountain bike, or even a BMX. Or a smaller displacement bike.
Anyway, depending on your speed you can still control that skid.
On an empty road, much easier if it’s some kind of rough road. Some dust, rubble, or even sand could make the practice easier. Actually, sand would make it hard if you don’t have enough power.

Scenario 1:
You can only do this up to 20km/h. Anything faster than that, you’re just calling for another more fatal accident. But hey, I’m not saying it’s impossible.

Use both of your brakes to slow down, and finally pull over.
Did that catch you by surprise?
And at that point, depending of your speed, you also need some kind of luck.
Turn on your flashers, and signal to pull over to the right. Use your right hand if you need to.
