We have a case in my office were there is some question as to why a driver did something in an accident, and I really need to understand it.

The reconstruction has been completed and it appears that one of the cars in this "aggressive driving" scenario lost control during a maneuver wherein he applied the emergency brake on rear wheel drive car (late model Saleen Mustang) at about 80 mph while passing in tight traffic.

Can anybody tell me if here is some legit (or illegit for that matter) driving technique which would explain that?

Thanks

its a drifting move too!

nail the ebrake to get the ass end sliding then release ebrake and power the slide with the throttle.

and drifters do this at high speeds too! which is not a normal rally move at high speed
