Ladies and gentlemen drivers, we’re here today to show you how to manhandle a Porsche. To demonstrate this, we shall use the adjacent video, which shows a 911 driver avoiding an incredibly close crash.
The man was driving on a French highway in his 993-generation Porsche 911, when a Renault Clio belonging to a past generation enters the scene from a high road, coming almost perpendicularly - the full speed of the Clio and its angle cause us to believe that the driver had a serious issue.

As the Clio performed a violent PIT-like maneuver on a BMW X1, which it sent off the road, the 911 driver shows excellent reactions. He does some really nice wheel balancing act and manages to stay safe. We have to keep in mind that the 993 Porsche 911 isn't exactly the kind of car you want to flick the wheel in at highway speeds. Rear-engined is the focus here...
