Oversteering is a condition that happens to a car when the center of gravity is affected by the pressure of changing the steering wheel and sometimes in combination with speeding up or slowing down a a vehicle around a turn. Oversteering is often talked about in the context of auto racing but can occur in normal daily driving. Step 1 Understand the cause. The way a car reacts to the force of gravity on a car can cause understeer or oversteer. Moving your steering wheel applies so many pounds of pressure on the front and rear axle of your car. When a less than even amount is applied between the front and back you get problems.
