What owners wrote

In 1996 I was driving at about 35-40 MPH. A vehicle to my right began to come into my lane. To avoid an accident I swirved to the left then corrected back to the right. This was not an out of control maneuver. When correcting back to the right, the vehicle moved sideways and proceeded to rollover onto a grassy median.
