The thing I learned from designer Trevor Harris, make CERTAIN that you did
not pass from
toe-in to toe-out or the other way around.. This can happen easily during
hard braking if the bump-steer is not correct. If it crosses over for in to
out, lots of times you need three lanes to make a one lane stop.
