If you don't even know if your car is front wheel, rear wheel or awd or the very most basics on drifting don't even try it let alone in a FWD car.
You will crash or roll your car. And YEs it is VERY easy to flip your car drifting.

Drifting means all 4 wheels are sliding in a controled slide.
This takes speed, HP and good hadling, something the Yaris does not have...
To really drift and control it while accelerating you need rear wheel drive or allwheel drive, something the yaris also does not have.

The ONLY way you are going to drift a FWD car is coming into a turn very hard and very fast, set up and brake for a bit of oversteer and continue to steer into it until the rear end has started to come around. At this time you counter steer and maintain the momentum keeping the rear wheels loose and then slide it around a corner. Often you will need to use the e-brake to help break the rear wheels loose. But most new driver or drivers with no experiance tend to let the rear end come around too much and they either wipe out or the car hooks up and flips over.

But again if you have that little of driving skills don't even try to do it on pavement.
If you mess up even a little this is what happens
