split the rut

Driving on the high part of a dirt road instead of on the worn out spots. Ruts are the holes already created. If you split the rut, you avoid driving in the holes by driving up on the high spots. This avoids undercarriage damage and getting stuck

"this road is washed out, we need to split the rut"

"Uh oh, looks like we need to split the rut"
