Not even from a Mustang. His tire pressures must’ve been WAY off.

I don’t even know how you do that, unintentionally. That’s not a high-powered car, and they all came with traction control standard (granted, that may be broken now).

His tire pressures must’ve been WAY off.

One thing is clear: after hitting the curb, that driver forgot where the brake pedal is.

The left one! No, the right one! Right pedal! Left!

Oh crap, it has three!

Looks like there was a slick spot in the road, and I bet the driver was on the gas hard to get ahead of traffic.

As for the rest of it, sheer driver skill. (Probably panicked and didn’t let off the gas.)

That first little bit of oversteer was likely caused by what you suggest (my money is on bad tires over slick spot but whatever)- but literally everything that happened after that is a massive driving FAIL.

“When in doubt, power out.” Not like there’s a brake pedal at your disposal or anything...

Clearly fake, he has his turn signal on.

Har har, but seriously, the road is dry and he has a low-powered car with amazing handling. Looks like a case of 95% idiot and 5% bald (or seasonally unfit) tires.

Lit cigarette / joint in lap + total panic application of only right pedal

I don’t know how else to explain that.

Eh. If you really lay down the power with the wheel cranked it can happen. And if you don’t get how fast you need to turn the wheel to counter act, you end up going the other way.

It’s dumb as but I get it. Welcome to inexperienced drivers
