RELEASE THE ACCELERATOR FIRST, then turn...do not apply the brakes
this is because the ability for your car 2 steer is dependant on the friction between the road and tyres. if u apply the brakes u risk at locking them up. if this happens there is nearly no friction and u wont b able 2 make the turn. what u want to do is to use as much of that friction solely 2 turn the car...hence u should not use the brakes
