same place man.

man, thats pretty lucky in so many ways.....just glad no one got hurt.

seriously, there are sooo many bad and dangerous drivers on the road. it amazes me how people are able to get their licenses so easily.

as for the euro. makes me feel even safer driving one=D

Good to hear stories like that.Proves what a capable car the Euro is.

The only time I seen the VSA lights blinks is during hard take off....

Ive had VSA save me once, Car started to understeer horribly vsa got me round the corner fine, otherwise it would have just slid ..possibly into the gutter.

in all honesty, id have to agree with the previous statement 110% k lads

Why hasnt this technology been mandated yet? Should be IMO

I just have one advise for everyone, if you activated your VSA when cornering on public road, SLOW DOWN MATE!!! You are going too fast around the corner and you could get into accident, hurt or worst kill yourself and/or others! Learn thorough your mistakes and slow down through corners next time.

VSA can only do so much, if you push it beyond its limit, it won't be able to save you.

PS: this is not pointed at anyone specific, but for everyone, especially if you feel proud you've activated your VSA on public road :eek: I've seen so many people do stupid things on the road.

Oh and blk05gli, I have a feeling you didn't activate your VSA, but only the ABS. You'd be surprised how well euro handles :thumbsup:

Depends on your tyres and how wet it is. I sometimes had VSA (not traction control) kick in when my Falkens were worn (still legal tread). Car would understeer and VSA would kick in and straighten up the car - even at slow speeds.

You've obviously never been on canberra roundabouts in the wet.... 15degree incline away from the corner with bumps in the middle... very easy for VSA to kick in, even when going slow!

but good point, people should be careful, VSA can only brake for you, it can't add extra traction to the tyres!
