Bouncing, shuttering?

So I have a 2007 cobalt 2LT coupe and If i kinda get on it (60-70 mph) and hit the brakes...even when i hit them lightly my car shakes like a ****, my stearing wheel shakes and and ****, really starting to **** me off, I cant corner worth a damn now without being scared ill lose control...(steering wheel shaking back and fourth uncontrolably) so the closest i can get to a diagram is this..
heres my lane === and heres my car ~~~ idk what is causing this, maybe rotors are warped? maybe my brakes are to? maybe a combination of those two things plus bad alignment. hell maybe even a bad shock? im cluesless here folks, so all advice appreciated.

also when i drive about 50-65 mph my car kinda bounces just like when you have a flat spot in your tire, had it looked at the day i got it (maybe two years ago) and thats what they said it was and they said it would wear out eventually, been riding on same tires for awhile and it has never changed. wont do it until your 50 on the dot or a little higher. its kinda wierd. and before you say anythign about me needing new tires my car only has 14,500 miles on it.lol

getting her slammed at the end of next month and when i get my camber adjusted ill have my suspension checked and brakes.

thanks

Broken Belt in tire (I know you say there is only 14,500 on tires)but for you to have a flat spot in the tires that could put a lot of stress on the tires causing the belt in the tire to eventually break.

Tires need to be balanced

Alignment

Warped rotors

bent axle

all taken into account, idk i suspect something is real bad with the suspension...just the way it feels. but maybe not. will check into the tire belt thingy or whatever you called it.
