Then it  will
start swaying violently ... I've cleared a 4-lane Interstate that way  !

BTW, if it does start to sway, do NOT try to countersteer, or jam on  the
brakes.  Hold the wheel steady, and brake gently.  Steering  towards the
shoulder seems to help too, but only with slow, gentle changes  in steering.



Years ago I was behind an MGB on an interstate and he started swinging  
violently with greater amplitude each cycle. I braked and got way behind before  he 
lost it. The whole darned thing spunout and jacknifed. Nothing tipped over  
but it sure was horrifyingto watchs.
