    careerintransitive verb: to go at top speed especially in a headlong mannera car careered off the road

    Careen and CareerVerbSome people might be confused by the warning to not confuse careen and career, because the most common sense of career (“a profession”) is not much like any of the meanings of careen. But when employed as a verb, career does have some semantic overlap with careen; both words may be used to mean “to go at top speed especially in a headlong manner.” A car, for instance, may either careen or career. Some usage guides hold, however, that the car is only careening if there is side-to-side motion, as careen has other meanings related to movement, among which is “to sway from side to side.”
