Narrative:

After landing; the nose wheel violently darted to the left. After trying to arrest the change in direction by applying right rudder; the plane began to skid and departed the runway into the infield. The investigation is ongoing as to why the plane darted left. Rudder trim was centered and all tires appear to be intact and with the appropriate level of air.
