Default Stability augmentation promises to give you even less control

THAT shows how you speak about thing you don't fully understand. ABS

shorten stopping distances, as the system can more precisely modulate the
brakes than any human is able.


The difference between that and what a skilled driver can achieve is
small,
and in any case, if someone is depending on that slight decrement in
stopping
distance, he's already making dangerous mistakes. In fact, if the ABS
activates at all, he is almost certainly making a mistake in his driving.
An
ABS activation always means impending skid, and if you need an impending
skid
to stop, you started braking way too late, or you were too close to
whatever
you are trying not to hit.


You are so damn stupid, you are a waste of oxygen.

If you ever had someone pull out in front of you while you were doing 55MPH,
and you had ABS, you had better be using it, or you gave up a hundred feet
of stopping distance.

I am glad for ever MPH my ABS lessen my speed when a person didn't see me
coming, and pulled out. Every extra MPH impact hurts, that much more. I
wasn't making dangerous mistakes, other than driving. That is one mistake
you will not make, because you are afraid of living.

But then, since you do almost no driving, and none now, you would not be in
real life to take your chances of applying ABS. Just like simming, instead
of flying.

Chicken****. Waste of air.

Everyone ignore this jerk, please ! ! ! The only way you can do that is to
block him out. I didn't, and like others, he ****es me off, and draws a
response. Block him, everyone, please ! ! !
