Highway offramps are sometimes tricky to drive on, because they are usually quite narrow, and often their turns tighten unexpectedly and drivers often find themselves in dangerous situations which seem to arise for no reason at all.
In this video, the driver of this car, equipped with a dash-mounted camera, gets off the highway, and onto an offramp. However, as he drives down the offramp, which is just as tight and twisty as you would imagine it to be, the car suddenly oversteers while negotiating a left turn, hitting the concrete abutment on the left, then the one on the right, which flips it onto its side.
This is a perfect example of how a very dangerous situation seems to appear with no reason whatsoever.
There are no visible icy or wet patches on the road, and there are no sudden bumps or surface changes, so we don`t really know why the car goes into snap oversteer all of a sudden. It is clear that the driver immediately pulls hard to the right, but he overcompensates, and that`s what finally causes the car to hit the concrete barrier on the right and flip.
