nice big tesco car park is the only time you should do this - road is asking for trouble - copper - kerb one day one will get you
Just wondering, is it actually illegal to put the back out on a road?
Would a copper be able to give you a ticket for a bit of fishtailing at 25mph?

could be perceived as dangerous driving/without due care & attention/not in control of your car...

perceived is one thing, not sure what it ACTUALLY is in the eyes of the law, especially if you only do it once on a damp road

Not illegal at all. I suspect you'd get some attention were you to do it repeatedly in a short space of time though...
