QUOTE(lsm1991 @ Jun 28 2016, 10:48 AM) i get how esc works and yeah its great and all, but purely from that video's standpoint, he lost control on purpose, in that particular case he very obviously forced the car to do that..... great way to emphasize the uses of esc but.... when i see videos like this, it seems like im being lied to~ He did it on purpose and yet can't flip the car.But what if you are driving on a highway and a box dropped off a lorry right in front into your path, then you will be doing exactly what he is doing but in an emergency. There is a reason why since 2014 it's illegal to sell new car without ESC in Europe. |

QUOTE(lsm1991 @ Jun 28 2016, 11:09 AM) about the flipping part, that really depends on the car itself...... suspension setup and all that has to be taken into consideration.... to do a fair test you need 2 of the same cars one with vcs/ecs one with none Even newer cheap Proton have ESC. So see no reason to get a more expensive new car that comes without.There is a reason why since 2014 it's illegal to sell new car without ESC in Europe. not gona argue with this, but all im saying is, that video is very erm... exaggerated?? proton's live demonstrations are probably a better example of why ecs is important main point is all these systems keep you in control, thats it... end of the day its there to keep your pointed in the direction you desire If you want to get a car without ABS or ESC or whatever, up to you. People don't buy a car and deliberately go looking for accident. Those system are there just in case you are in difficult situations. This post has been edited by Optiplex330: Jun 28 2016, 11:27 AM |

QUOTE(lsm1991 @ Jun 28 2016, 11:29 AM) ehh dont get me wrong abang~ im critisising the video!! not esc!!..... im just saying thats an exagerated video thats all~~ It's common to exaggerate something when one wanted to make a point but the important thing is, is the point valid? I find you shooting the messenger instead of focusing on the message.now this video me like~ no silly exaggerated flipping of cars/funny stuff happening, simple, clearcut |

QUOTE(lsm1991 @ Jun 28 2016, 11:40 AM) nuuuuu.... owait... might be cause that was fifthgear... which reminded me of top gear.... which reminded me of the old top gear..... I am sure in many of the accidents in Malaysia safety system like ABS and ESP would have helped in sizable number of those accidents but of course not all. If both cars cost similar amount money there is no reason to choose one without. |
