What is the result of understeering during a 90-degree turn?

When a driver experiences understeering during a 90-degree turn, the vehicle tends to go too wide, which means it fails to navigate the turn effectively and continues straight rather than following the intended path. Understeering usually occurs when the front tires lose grip, causing the driver to turn the steering wheel more, but the vehicle does not respond as expected. This can lead to the vehicle moving outside the desired lane or path, particularly noticeable in tighter turns. Proper steering and speed management can help prevent understeering and ensure the vehicle maintains its intended trajectory through a turn.
