Intransitive sense of "to lean, to tilt" is from 1763, specifically of ships; in general use by 1883. In sense "to rush headlong," confused with career (v.) since at least 1923.

Related: Careened; careening. 【记】car + 音：阴，车开进阴沟，倾斜在沟坡上；care + en, 维护，维护船或车时将其倾斜过来；career (原指道路)人的职业生涯中在高速行驶时不时会偏向，也需要将其倾斜来修理
