New to driving. What are these terms that people always use and how to avoid them?
Overcorrecting
Fail to negotiate a turn
Hydroplane

I'm still new to driving so a lot of the google results don't come up with helpful terms that don't require me to search up a lot of other things. Are there any other dangerous driving terms out there that I should be aware of?

Overcorrecting is when you lose control of the car and by correcting too much you may spin out. A way to avoid this especially at high speeds is to let off the gas and slowly brake.
Failing to negotiate a turn is when you over estimate the entry speed into a corner, causing potential oversteer or understeer.
Hydroplaning is when you are driving on a water covered road. Drive slowly.
Always check your mirrors, always signal, be confident and alert.

How much money would I have to spend on my Civic Si to beat my coworker? He has a stock 2013 GT500. I only really want to spend like 3k so I would love some tips. I have a friend who can install all the stuff for cheap so I dont really have to worry about labor.

heres what im thinking right now:
> stage 3 turbocharger
> turbo-back off road exhaust
> cold air intake
> racing slicks
> lowered racing suspension
> upgraded headers
> racing tune
> nitrous

Anything else I should add? I found most of the parts on eBay for cheap so I think I might have a little bit left over idk what to spend that on yet though

Please help me /o/ , i got my driving license 8 days ago and love driving and everything about it , i aced all my exams (including the practical part that has a 50% failure rate) and tonight i was driving with 2 of my friends around town and i was doing the speed limit on a road that has 2 lanes in the direction i was going and i was in the right lane.A car about 10 meters away from me suddenly stopped and the passenger went out to get something from a bakery , i spotted that sort of late (didnt see hazards or brainfarted) and i had to slam my brakes when my friend yelled and stopped about 30cm from the guys fender and i had a couple of cars really close behind me and they also had to slam their brakes and tires screeched,so i put about 3-4 cars including mine in an awkward position. People were honking and shit while i had to go from 3rd to 1st and rejoin the left lane because of the fucking retard that decided to stop all traffic in one lane just to have a piece of pastry. I drove home with shit scared in me ,i wasnt really paying attention when driving after that and i dont even know how i got home safely. I keep replaying that scenario in my head and wandered what the fuck happened and why was my braking so late and why the fuck did the retard stop? I am now frightened to get behind the wheel again and cant stop stressing out about it(fact that 2 of my friends were also in the car and witnessed/experienced the fuck up also isnt helping. Please give me some advice, i illustrated the situation in the pic.

You were probably distracted because of our friends. No biggie, we've all been there.

Now that you're on the road you got to realize that every driver out there with you is a potential retard. As such you should always be cautious around anyone. You might consider yourself a good driver but that's only half of it.

You were lucky and make this a learning experience. Just because it's a road doesn't mean someone won't stop. If it's convenient for someone, you can bet they'll take that opportunity. You might go find a place to park to go into an establishment, others will simply just fuck everyone else and park right there.

Don't mind the others behind you. They didn't keep a safe distance from you or weren't paying attention either.

Drive like you're invisible and drive like everyone is fucking retarded. People will do whatever the fuck they want on the road if they can do it and you must be prepared to act accordingly.

Have a good day, sir.

Advice:
PAY MORE ATTENTION
LEAVE MORE SPACE BETWEEN YOU AND THE CAR IN FRONT. If you have more distance, you have more time to think.

Try living in West Virginia
Nothing but base model shitboxes in the most awful condition you can imagine

Not good shitboxes like Honda or Toyota, but the worst of the worst like Pontiac, Chevy, Ford and Dodge. Most usually have body rust and a shit load of problems

If it's not that, its shitty broncos or jeeps that are just as bad condition. And don't get me started on fucking trucks, which the people selling them only want to trade them for a atv or dirt bike

Would you buy this? Its in petty shitty condition but I know these things are hard to find and it would be fun to drive hard on twisty roads. Also I could easily drop in an wrx engine for cheap if I ever got bored. Thoughts? What should I offer?

That gorilla intake is a neat add. Go for it. $2500.
Check to see if it has rust. Seriously, be fucking thorough.
Modifying it is eazy. Engine swap, cool beans. Only big thing is doing wiring.
Cars are like legos.
Buy mine. $1000

Did it come with that size?

>>17588552
makes you buy more sets or singular wrenches to fill the original set up. I dont think gearwrench does that if youre looking for a full set. not trying to shill or anything
>>
Because 18mm is a rather uncommon size. The only use I've found for it is my rear strut axle mounts.
