drifting

Drifting is a driving technique where a driver intentionally oversteers, causing the car’s rear wheels to lose traction and slide sideways through a turn. This controlled slide allows for high-speed cornering while maintaining control. Originally developed in motorsports for show and skill demonstration, drifting requires precise throttle, steering, and brake use to balance the car’s slide. The practice emphasizes style, car control, and stylistic maneuvering, often performed on purpose to showcase driving skill or for entertainment.
