Almost lost it but no!

The following is a public service announcement:

Every automobile sold in USA is engineered to go straight unless the driver makes it turn. If you find yourself in the predicament demonstrated in the video, simply release your grip on the wheel & allow the steering wheel to spin thru your hands until it stops with the wheels pointing straight ahead as it was designed to do.

The car may not be heading the way you want it to, but you will be able to steer whichever way you need to go instead of sliding out of control. You can practice this technique during right angle turns on most public turns to get the feel of it.


Also while driving, in addition to looking as far away as possible, look where you want to go which will not always be straight out the windshield. Your hands tend to steer in the direction your eyes are looking.
