Was the driver “boxed” ?
He was freed, so he learned to think outside the box.
"and". 👈
Hhmm. Maybe if people would learn to drive slower abd not try to overcorrect when involved in an accident then maybe they would not flip over. It's basic Physics. You grip the steering wheel at the 11:00 and 1:00 o'clock position and press down on the Brakes. Don't swing the Steering Wheel left or right. Understand? 👈
They don’t know when to slow down
