Is there a trope name for situations like the mine-car pursuit in Temple of Doom, or the ice-sliding scene in Ice Age? Cases when the characters are all sliding/rolling/speeding out of control, and colliding with things at speed poses a greater threat than whatever they might have been fleeing from when they started? It's been used so often, it's bound to rate a trope name.
