Drifting is a driving technique where the driver intentionally oversteers, with loss of traction, while maintaining control and driving the car through the entirety of a corner. The technique causes the car to slide sideways as the driver steers into the turn, and is used to maintain or gain speed while cornering.
Drifting is a popular technique in motorsport, and is also used in street racing and drifting competitions. In the video game Grand Theft Auto V, drifting is a popular way to drive, and there are many different ways to drift in the game.
