Question Name that handling phenomenon

Today, as I was accelerating through a sweeping curve, a truck stopped in front of me. When I let-off the gas, the car 'twitched' as if trying to oversteer. I haven't experienced this before, although I have long thought my rear springs were too stiff.

I tried to force this reaction on other streets...with the same results. I guess I've always just continued accelerating until straightening-out.

Anyway, I figure there is a name and a solution for this (besides driving more conservatively). So I welcome any information by those more educated than me.

FYI - I don't have any anti-sway-bars on the car.
