A crash is probably the most obvious way you can learn of the differences in vehicle dynamics between FWD and RWD.

I can't really ascertain if there was a lesson to be learned here, except maybe that inexperienced drivers shouldn't try to turn off the stability control... EVER.

For every one of these wrecked by a kid who doesn't realize a 200hp Subaru isn't a FWD Honda with a wheezy engine, the insurance premiums will be revised.

I figure after a few more kids wrap these around telephone poles, we'll have 20-30% bump in premiums. If not more.
