Right at the end when I was turning into my driveway I was in 5th gear and rolling fairly along and it wouldn't turn sharp enough which caused me to brake quite hard. I had forgotten about the "cowboy" safety that limits the amount of steering when above 3rd gear. Had to almost stop and shift down to turn.
