Something caused the aircraft to suddenly swing left 35/45 degrees. The port wheels skid mark show the aircraft was travelling in a straight line when the wheels locked up for a short distance then rotated again before crossing the runway edge, which skid mark free. I suspect there might have been a problem with the nose-wheel steering. For the captain's sake I hope so.
Would starboard gear brake failure plus port side ABS activating account for the marks?
