Expertz 1st Gear June 26, 2012 Share June 26, 2012 this is where experience and skills comes in. Obviously none was shown on the clips. well i have been in a similar situation before when it was raining and i tried at the last minute to turn but the car continued to skid forwards what should i, or the driver in the video do when the car skids forwards despite the steering wheel already turned? for me i jammed on the brakes and abs kicked in, saved myself quite costly repairs, unfortunately for the driver in the video, abs wasn't able to save him other than releasing the brakes, i really don't know what else can a person do, unless you are thinking about accelerating which i think will require tons of courage that i don't have Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks! This is my other Maltese, an old lady of 63 by doggie years. Yeah...looks like if he/she had stayed the course, the car would have cleared the barrier. I have seen quite a few cars cutting into this exit from lane 1 quite late to avoid the slower traffic at left-most lanes. Moreover, once at the exit, still got Merchant Rd/Clemenceau Ave to choose from. Worse if guided by GPS. Can't quite tell which is which at times.
