Cars don’t “jack-knife.” What the heck are they talking about?

I think “jackknife” is just a dramatic word reporters have heard related to terrible truck accidents but they don’t know what such an accident entails or, probably, what a jackknife is.

I presume by “jack knife” they meant the back end came around. It is a rear wheel drive car.

And then the writer runs with it, proving he’s an idiot regarding cars/vehicles.
