PIO = Pilot-induced oscillation (due to overcontrolling and a lag between moving the controls and them taking effect, can lead to an oscillation becoming worse. The classic case is the landing bounce which gets worse and worse until the nosewheel drops off, but snaking on the runway can be just as bad.)
