No. Freeze plugs are plugs to fill holes in the block and sometimes heads that were cast into the engine to allow the mold sand to be evacuated after the engine was cast. Another use for the flreeze plug was to allow it to be pushed out in the event of a very hard freeze and the cooling water froze in the engine. the plug would pop out from the force of the expanding frozen water and releive the pressure, thus saving the block or head from getting cracked. This was along time ago before the widespread use of antifreeze coolant and enclosed garages. Non the less, if you have a leaking freeze plug, it won't cause smoking unless the coolant is contacting some hot metal such as an exhaust pipe. In any case of leakage, the plug needs to be replaced.

Why oversteer happens?
Oversteering happens when the driver misjudges how much turn in the steering wheel is needed fora steering correction. For instance, during a left hand curve in the roadway, the driver slightly runs off the right hand side of the road. The driver is suprised and jerks the wheel to theleft to make the correction. To much left turn on the wheel will cause the car to shoot to the left, possibly crossing the lane markers. It will also cause the rear of the vehicle to longer follow the front of the vehicle causing the vehicle to go into a skid.
