English term

oversteered

English to Albanian Tech/Engineering Automotive / Cars & Trucks steering characteristics
I am backtranslating an Albanian translation about cars and traffic, where the author has used the word "mbipilotim" for "oversteered" (=oversensitive in curves), which doesn't make sense to me. I would be very happy for a good Albanian word, even for a confirmation of "mbipolitim" if it's correct. -- I also have "understeered" but I reckon it doesn't need a separate question.

tejprerje

Since this is about a characteristic of the car, not of the driver, then, in my opinion `tejprerje` is more adequate as it does not hint to any action made by a person/driver. It simply tells about a car characteristic.

pres timonin

As a driver, I use this term to say that I turned too sharply in a corner.
Example sentence:

E preva timonin majtas pasi më doli një qen përpara.

Note from asker:
Thanks Denis, but this is about a characteristic of the car, not of the driver. Normally it depends on a heavy tail.
