The lateral velocity of a wheeled vehicle with pneumatic tires, while cornering under high speed will be greater than the speed in the direction to which the wheels are pointed. Here high speed indicated anything greater than approximately 10 mph or 16 kmph. The angle between the direction of a pointing of a rolling wheel with its actual angle is known as slip angle. Or in simple, slip angle is the angle between the natural path of the tires with its actual path. The car is said to be in the neutral steering state, if the slip angle of front wheel is equal to the slip angle of the rear wheel. The car is said to be understeering, if the slip angle of the front wheels exceed the slip angle of the rear wheel. Likewise, if the slip angle of the rear wheel exceeds the slip angle of the front wheel, the car is said to be oversteering.
