Depending on the road conditions, speed, and the traction available, a car may understeer or oversteer. However, the design of the car will tend to produce a specific “terminal” condition, as the car is forced to and past its limit of adhesion. As the result of the design of a car, it tends to understeer when the cornering load exceeds the traction of the tire. Such a situation can be termed as “Terminal Understeer”.
