SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR PREVENTING UNCONTROLLABLE VEHICLE DRIFT

Systems and methods provide for corrective assistance to maintain a stable controllable drift, while permitting a drift driving experience for the driver. Examples of the systems and methods disclosed herein include receiving first data corresponding to a current operational state of a vehicle while performing a controllable drift; receiving a request to operate the vehicle in a requested operational state; determining that the requested operational state exceeds a threshold operational state associated with an uncontrollable drift; and, in response to the determination, providing corrective assistance to operate the vehicle in a corrective operational state to prevent the vehicle from entering an uncontrollable drift.
