Re: i could have been badly hurt today

What kinda car was it? an F bod? What was the weather like? Slamming on the brakes especially in RWD forces a lot of weight transfer rear to front and can thus throw it around especially if your turning while slamming the breaks, that's just inertia and physics working against you.

your back brakes probably locked up, so you can tell your girlfriend she was drifting

Same principle but it shouldn't have spun around in FWD. Back brakes may be out of adjustment. You didn't hit anything so just enjoy the ride you won't get to many oppurtunities to do that and walk away.

Under hard braking if your car steers to one side despite steering in the opposite direction I would think its because your brakes are grabbing better on one side than the other...maybe have them checked.

Doc Hudson said if you turn hard enough right you'll find yourself going left. Pixar wouldn't lie.

How could you mess up a paragraph so bad. I almost gave up trying to comprehend after the first sentence.

Agreed. Maybe he's still a little shaken up??

so my girlfiriend and I were on our way to the movies when the car in front of us slamed on their brakes so my g/f slams on hers and steers to the right to go into the shoulder so we dont hit the car but for some reason the car spins out to the left and all i see is the semi coming at us. he told us he saw the first car slam on theirs so he started to slow down so that was good for us or he would have hit us. the thing i dont understand is how did the car spin out? i didnt see my g/f do anything wrong should we take her car in to have it looked at
