See? There ya go, lift throttle oversteer. I bet the guy was driving too hard into the turn, panicked, tried hit the brakes only to have his whole car turn sideways and wrap itself around a tree. Understeer is generally pretty forgiving so if he plowed that sucker, he would've made it through by turning the wheel more than usual (unless he REALLY botches it; in which case, he'd hit the tree head on.)
It's weird but a lot of these accidents can be avoided if the drivers stay on the gas.

I believe that happend in washington, and there was a thread about the kid in the scion getting involuntary homicide, because he was racing a kid in a 3 series BMW and the kid died.
Tc Driver = 18, bmw driver = 17 and they went to the same school.
At least thats where I *think* that tC pic came from

There has got to be a cheaper company that bases rates on my driving not others.
