Erm, how you all know he is road hogging? Also, ya although only a few droplets on the windscreen, but probably just after rain or going to rain. So give this guy a break lah!

 

Anyway, the C180 obviously wanted to overtake TS but misjudged distance, his acceleration and not accounting the fact that the middle lane car suddenly sam brake 2 - 3 cars distance away from the vehicle in front , so he only got 2 choice - 1. zam brake or 2. continue his overtaking maneuver on TS.

 

The distance between TS & C180, seemingly still within reaction distance.

If c180 is so fast, how come the driver can have enough time to take out the camera and record down the speedy act?

Now I am convinced how Good handling of C180 at > 100km/h in the Rain ! Demonstrated by this Reckless or Impatient Driver of this Grey C180, who cut in front of me without any signal - My Rant loh !

 

 

I have actually tried out the C180 and is true. Having been pondering on whether the BMW 1series or C180. Looks like this is the final decision that I have make .

Any car can do it. Seems you are a super safe driver. Never seen or never done it before. Please move-in if you are slow.

You mean there are cars that cannot drive in the rain?

 

Unless its flood, or heavy snowing which maybe high clearance SUV can be driven.

 

But it does make a different to drive cars with ESP & without ESP on ice or snow, with all else equal.

 

I do know a lot of B&B cars are not equip with ESP here, especially the older models.

TS, please lah, road hogging is not right

TS, are you sure you are referring to handling or traction? I believe you should be referring to traction.

[HP_Lee]

If it is a BB car, what will happen??? I don't dare to even think of doing that with my previous Altis[gossip]
