zamiatanie tyłem samochodu na boki
Fishtailing is a vehicle handling problem which occurs when the rear wheels lose traction, resulting in oversteer. This can be caused by low-friction surfaces (sand, gravel, rain, snow, ice, etc.). Rear-drive vehicles with sufficient power can induce this loss of traction on any surface, which is called power-oversteer.
During fishtailing,[1] the rear end of the car skids to one side, which must be offset by the driver counter-steering, which is turning the front wheels in the same direction as the skid, (e.g. left if the rear swings left) and reducing engine power. Over-correction will result in a skid in the opposite direction; hence the name. Without a proper driver's reaction, the fishtailing vehicle will spin completely.

But accurate. The idea is that the back of the car MUST swing back and forth.

Depending on the conditions of the road and your driving skill, it may be possible to correct this initial skid very quickly. If not, you may end up skidding in the opposite direction. It is this change in direction that is called “fishtailing”, as the rear of the car moves somewhat like a fish's tail

W aucie z tylnym napędem nadsterowność występuje także wtedy, gdy dodamy za dużo gazu przy skręconych kołach. Ze względów praktycznych zajmę się jednak samochodami z przednim napędem, których jeździ po naszych drogach najwięcej. A zatem - jak wyprowadzić samochód przednionapędowy z poślizgu nadsterownego?

In fishtailing, it is important that the rear of the car swing both ways, not to one side only. This resembles the way a fish wags its tail left and right.
