Is it dangerous to turn the forklift to full speed?

When the steering wheel is turned to the extreme, how much can the rear wheels rotate? The maximum angle is 90 degrees – can the wheels be turned sideways? At this point, whether it’s in first gear or reverse gear, does the rear of the vehicle spin in place around the front? Is this what is called drifting? Is this operation dangerous? Is it considered illegal operation? What are the differences in operating a forklift and a car? Is the forklift rear-wheel driven or front-wheel driven?
Turning the steering wheel of a forklift to the extreme can increase the risk of rollover, as it becomes very unstable when the forklift is moving at high speed. Turning the steering wheel to the extreme usually requires 2 full rotations; the angle that the rear wheels can turn depends on the model of the forklift, but it can reach up to 90 degrees, allowing the wheels to rotate horizontally. At this point, whether in first gear or reverse gear, the rear of the car will spin in place around the front, which is what is known as drifting. This type of operation is extremely dangerous and violates safety procedures; it can easily lead to accidents, so it should be avoided. Compared to cars, forklifts are heavier and less agile; they require more space and skill to operate, thus demanding greater caution. .
Does the building manager really have to use such obscure methods? Forklifts are machines that are top-heavy when loaded, especially when lifting heavy objects with their forks; this is very dangerous. Leave some leeway when operating to ensure safety. Of course, acting recklessly is another matter.
Guess why the tire fell off: lol
