Only driven a FWD for more than 30 mins at a time a couple of times and had noticed severe understeer in the wet going around a roundabout...
not necessarily. i have owned RWD and FWD cars and i've never ended up on my roof. i think you'll find it comes down to a number of things but mainly - in order of relevance - : experience on the road, experience with the car, the specific car (model). sorry to hear about your car photn. good to see you're ok and good luck with your license.
