It can be fixed!,.....with enough elbow grease and wallet pressure!

Just last week,...I watched (in my review mirror) a guy,...in a shiny new G30 5-Series,...prepare to "shoot-the-gap" going North-bound on I-95 (near Springfield, VA),....I thought to myself I should probably give him more room,...as he was Very Committed/Determined to make it happen,....so, I swerve to the right a bit (staying in my lane),....and see that he missed the bumper of the lead car by a mere 2-feet or so! If the lead car had done a break-check,...there would have easily been a 5 to 7 car pile-up!,...and I could have been part of it. The G30 driver put everyone at risk just so he could make the Toll Lane Entrance,.....of which, he could have easily just taken the next entrance less than 2 miles away! Not only was he just shooting the gap,...he also did a double lane change in the process,...which could have gone extremely bad on any given Sunday in the DMV area. I don't wish anyone bad driving luck,...but even the best "speeders" get caught every now and then!

I'm not talking about politics. I come to the forum to be happy and focus on things I enjoy

I can only say what I have experienced - having used MDM mode twice, it allows you to go properly sideways & you need quick & precise input to avoid a tank slapper. |

I feel pity for the next (Polish) owner....cheap is likely to be expensive in the long run.
