i have not encountered any of this, maybe its the version your playing? maybe you accidently put Driver in and not GTA? becasue all the cars in my game handle differently. i can tell the differenace between a front engine car rear engine car and mid engine car the way they go around turns.
i had to make a 3 point turn in a garbage truck in a interesction becasue it was to big and i zipped through the same interesction with ease and a mad drifto in the Futo corolla gts lookn thing. (which is pretty dope might i add, and it says drift x on the head rest of the seat lol).
you honestly just dont know how to drive but its ok, rockstar thought of this and added an alternative, from now on i suggest you use yellow cabs and the subway untill you get the sand out of your vagina and learn how to operate a 4 wheeled vehicle like man
