Then it will
start swaying violently ... I've cleared a 4-lane Interstate that way !
BTW, if it does start to sway, do NOT try to countersteer, or jam on the
brakes. Hold the wheel steady, and brake gently. Steering towards the
shoulder seems to help too, but only with slow, gentle changes in steering.
Years ago I was behind an MGB on an interstate and he started swinging
violently with greater amplitude each cycle. I braked and got way behind before
he
lost it. The whole darned thing spunout and jacknifed. Nothing tipped over
but it sure was horrifyingto watchs.
