You think that's really an accident? It's 100% avoidable. Come out to drive at one of these events and start discovering why.
Cliffs notes: people don't lose control of their cars, they give it up. These events can help you understand how/why, and keep it from happening to you, in theory, if you want to learn and have a blast in the process.

At least that's how to sell it to your parent or legal guardian
