Wet conditions in a tunnel, stupidly thought it was dry enough for some acceleration. Car instantly dove left and had to correct right enough that the choice became allow the car to spin or keep sliding right into a wall. Actually spun it around twice before I could recover and slapped it into second gear and was on my merry way. I would say I came within inches of the wall but easily would have gone into it if I had less experience.

 

Same exact situation. this was probaly the third or fourth day I owned my S. I was ridding through campus and there is about a 90 degree right turn which brings you out to a main road. I previously drove a 01 civic. in my civic i could hammer it through this corner with good speed and still be fine. Not with the S, i down shifted into second and got it completly side ways. Next thing i know im headed striaght for a telephone poll. I hold my breath and some how i stoped no more than 6 inches away from the pool. (thank you God). I was so close to the poll i could not even open the drivers side door. about 1 minute later some dude in a jeep pulled around and had to pull me out. I drove away with no damage and i tad but of mud under the car. I said a little prayer and then went straight to the car wash. needless to say i was done driving for the day. (i guess we both learned our leason teng)

 

I'll say twice, though one was accident avoidance, both on wet roads.

1st: woman changes lanes into me while making a left turn with dual turning lanes, her on the inside, me on the outside. Instead of keeping in her lane and arriving in the far left lane of our destination, she just scoots over into my lane, which would've been the middle lane. I accelerated while widening my turn to avoid her, ended up sideways through the last 1/3 of the corner and saved it to wind up in the far right lane. Continued to accelerate away with the single finger salute.

2nd: My fault. Turning right into the far right lane while exiting Western Auto onto the same 3-lane highway on which the above incident occurred. Bit of an uphill exit with the crest at road level. As soon as the rear tires crested, they just kept on swinging outward. Accelerated away with a gentle and controllable slide into the middle lane, though that wasn't my initial intention at all.
