The dangers of DRLs 4647

C.H.

I have not called you a third grader yet, but you certainly seem to reason like one.

The point is, you don't have to get anywhere near locking up the wheels on the high mu side to outbrake the ABS.

Why? You'll just stop faster.

Why? You'll just slide straight ahead.

On Fri, 08 Jul 2005 21:52:24 +0000, 223rem I never said 'great car', but good car...

Why?

Have you ever DONE any of these maneuvers in a real, live car? Do you have any clue what the heck you're talking about? Survey says... NO.

Since I was working on prototype vehicles, my experience is actually only a couple years behind. Maybe 2-3 at most.

Absolute balls. A 16-year old can be taught to do it in a couple hours.

Balls.

Explain. Straightening out the steering wheel would seem to solve the problem quite nicely, which would seem to be a reflexive maneuver (since the first feedback the driver would receive would be the nose of the vehicle suddenly starting to turn in the direction of the steering input.)

Odd that that hasn't happened yet, then, isn't it?

Obviously. It's clear you just want to "be right" and don't really care about educating yourself at all.

Balls.

If you had a "very good idea" of how it worked you wouldn't be arguing with me, because I have enought experience to authoritatively state that I am right and you are wrong. I was also apparently right when I stated that even if I explained my statements in detail that you wouldn't accept the explanations.

Read for comprehension, idiot. Where did I state that I was driving a crappy minivan?

Read for comprehension, idiot.

That's not what I said at all. I said "every American truck-based platform" meaning at that time I'd driven just about all of them. Read for comprehension, idiot.

But that's not even close to what I said.
