Default understeer and then high centered

Drove himself onto the media and got stuck. Wheels are off the ground on both sides. He didn't drive up the median from the start - the sign is still up at the start of the median. He actually hit the median at an angle (understeered into the turn) and bumped the car up and over, leaving it square on the median. stupid head!
