A term used to describe a hard turn a driver just made. The notion is that the turn was so abrupt and so scary, that it would not be impossible that someone's shorts would have turned brown. It's meant to be used to acknowledge the person driving turned WAY too hard, and encourage them to drive safer and turn with more care. Another way of saying "you almost killed us with your driving"
In a car of 4 people, the driver makes a hard right turn that almost flips the car and the tires on the car squeal.

Get the chong box mug.A "check-in-the-box" and is an action or mandate that a group or authority takes when it doesn't want to be liable for something, so they put on an act that everyone secretly knows is functionally meaningless but has enough good intention so that criticism is often viciously attacked. In the end, if a worst-case scenario presents itself, the group or authority in question can claim they took all the possible precautions they had at their disposal and are not liable for damages while exclaiming how sorry they are things didn't happen as they would have liked. This usually leads to calls for more feel-good protocols and additional checks-in-the-box actions, and if the group or authorities' performance is good enough can even lead to the group or authority being lauded for their benevolence, all the while the people forgetting it was the original check-in-the-box that might have caused the crisis.
Person A: Do you think installing a sign warning people that there is no lifeguard on duty will help prevent drowning?
Person B: (Being honest) Of course not, but it's a check-in-the-box, so we won't be responsible if anything else does happen.
Person A: You're so cynical.
