Keep in mind the tires are fairly wide for the size and power to weight of the car. When you get on it, like passing in a hurry, you're going to hydroplane and lose traction. Add to that quick steering that causes you to over correct and you fish tail. A lot of cars would have lost control. Stewie is balanced and was able to drive a little further in to the situation. Slow down, you'll live longer and so will others. I never drive any faster than I feel confident with. Still haven't broken the tail loose yet. But I will eventually.

But I managed to live long enough to learn.
