Adventures, on and off the road
Here's another video clip of rally drivers discovering, to their cost, that Newton was right, and the laws of motion are not to be taken lightly (particularly the bits about an 'unbalanced force').
Seems like a lot of the spectators had a death wish standing next to the road on the outside of a curve.
