ESC
Since September 1, all new U.S. light vehicles are required with ESC
(electronic stability control) or similar device to prevent vehicle
skidding out of control on bends.
Since five years ago, the Federal Highway Traffic Safety Administration
(NHTSA) initiated legislation, many new cars have been fitted with
computer control of such things. So we use the car, may have most of the ESC.
I remember a decade ago, by a small truck into the SUV became popular,
some people are not careful driving in the fast bends on the open point,
it causes a big roll-over accident. The road or when driving in rain, fierce braking point, the car began to shake, if flustered, it may be out of control. In fact, if the experience of driving in the snow people, should know how to cope with the car's reactions. But with the popularity of SUV's, driving accidents are increasing.
Depot was being started on the line with four-wheel brake ABS, the
design of such an electronic device to control the speed of each wheel. After many trials, that the ESC is indeed effective to prevent roll-over. And because the relationship between mass production, each car so the added cost of only ninety dollars only. So today, this thing just like seat belts, as standard equipment of each car.
But some people do not think ESC is a good thing.
A recent poll said two-thirds of motorists that drive people to their
own care, learn to drive the technology, do not rely on the ESC and ABS
and other modern equipment, so that in case of equipment failure, will
not dare to drive.
There are a number of people who love to drive, the drive when the
hobby, feel these modern technological equipment to reduce their driving
pleasure and so on.
Because individuals learn to drive when the car also are manual cars,
braking and turning, the hands should make a lot of effort, the car of
course, things do not have these technologies, including GPS and so on.
So turn out to be a real skill and courage, to teach car for many
years, what used cars are opened, there is none of these things are
similar.
But the traffic safety point of view, these new gadgets can often reduce the novice mistake, so that everyone safe driving. So we should be according to their new car's design, look at the manual, learn how to use them.
