Driving Without Electronic Stability Control - Fifth Gear

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

When looking to purchase a second hand car, there are a few things you must be aware of. One key feature is cars not having ESC, (Electronic Stability Control) which only came into effect in 2012.
We test the Toyota Yaris which doesn't have ESC, but in 2001 was awarded 4/5 Stars by Euro NCAP. All to find out what swerving at high speeds can cause.

    +Jaebodiah ESC while it cant overcome the laws of physics, it creates a bigger buffer and add more safety. for example, a car that would roll at 70 without ESC, will only roll at 90 with ESC. in fact it should be pretty impossible to roll many "normal" cars with low center of mass on the street. different story if you take wheight out of an already quite high build toyota yaris or attempt the same thing in an SUV or Lorry....

    I don't know if you've figured this out by now, but a lower center of gravity is beneficial and helps prevent roll overs. The cage Was not an actual "cage" but rather structural bars giving the roof support from the car's main frame. The weight that the bars add to the top of the car is less than the weight of a human head and does not drastically change the results. I can't say much about the tires, as they were most likely new like you stated, although it could be expected for many cars on the roads to still have thick tire treads and thus is still slightly applicable. All in all, any vehicle without stability control can be expected to roll at speeds exceeding even 50mph during a sharp swerve. Can't really credit Top Gear on their scientific accuracy, but it is generally true that Vehicle Stability Control drastically reduced the chances of uncontrolled swerving or roll overs resulting from a swerve, despite their possibly skewed results.

    Kris S As with all such programs on commercial TV, it wasn't about science. It was about swaying the opinion of the viewers who don't know enough science to know better which is actually more than 60% of any given population thusly 60% of the voting and spending population. There's been a lot of western government pushes recently towards getting rid of older cars in favour of more economic and electronic versions which force you to take it to the dealer for repairs. Trust me, it's all money driven politics with agreements between companies to keep each other in on the profit and lock out everyone else. Top Gear/5th Gear.... All receive payments from the motor companies themselves. Anyways, what better way then to show on TV a car without ESC, more importantly a pre 2012 car, crashing hard thus visually implying that any pre-2012 car won't have ESC and thusly you'll end up dying a horrible death. Boom, 60% now thinking they'll look towards a more modern car for their next purchase. If you want the science dude, go out there and do science for yourself and see with your own eyes while taking your own measurements. Everything else, especially what you see on commercial TV, is either biased or pure propaganda.

    In isolation it doesn't mean much, as it isn't tested against a car with ESC. So who knows if ESC could help under these circumstances? You might just as well have driven it into a skip at 80mph and said "this is what happens to a car without a DAB radio in a 80mph Collision.... When you buy your next car, insist on a DAB radio to prevent this from happening...." ESC is a lot like ABS and TCS. It can be helpful, yes, but bad systems can be very intrusive and potentially make things worse by preventing the car, or driver, doing things they otherwise could. It made a good case for race-prepping a car, though. That's something I'd pay for, although the tiny fuel tank wouldn't be much use on the morning commute!

I could also see it on the dash (flashing ESC light). It's also *great* and confidence inspiring while driving on icy snowy roads. i will never ever buy a car without ESC again. Together with ABS it makes that car *quite* a lot safer. And if you want to hoon around in a controlled environment you can still switch the ESC off.

    jfv65 Safety systems like ABS act as a crutch for poor or inexperienced drivers to avoid killing themselves and others. It takes the breaking control away from the driver and can *increase* stopping distance. I couldn't believe it when the brake pedal was suddenly yanked away from me while I was breaking hard for a horse in the road while driving a 2013 ford fiesta.. _I assume the ABS system released the breaks due to the left hand wheels losing traction momentarily on the mud and locking briefly. I have never experienced anything like that driving my older, non ABS, car._ ABS works by removing your brake control then applying pressure to the point in which the wheels lock, then releasing the brakes and repeating. Whereas by applying the right amount of breaking pressure you can apply the maximum braking force without locking the wheels at all! _Thus stopping you earlier_ ESC at least doesn't attempt to kill experienced drivers. Although you do lose some feel of the road. _ABS is seriously dangerous. Although it does save more lives than it takes._

    Just like any driver-aid, it can only be good, when it works properly. Otherwise, it makes your car more dangerous. Failing ABS will lengthen your brakedistance e.g. I dont even want to imagine what a bad ESC can do to your car during an otherwise safe maneuver. I have pretty bad experiences with collision avoiding systems, where they hit the brake on a dead empty road, sometimes in the corner. These systems are not failproof enough to be trusted. You are better off paying for a driver training, and learning how to actually drive a car in tricky situations.

    Once upon a time people - well, some people - had a clue. Then came ABS and everybody had the brilliant thought that they could ride the ass of the car in front at 70MPH. Then came traction control and the same shitheads thought they could do the same in the snow. Back up cameras, why shoulder check? Cars that park themselves - why learn? Now they'll believe what? That they can play roulette with the steering wheel with a vibrator up their arse and all will be just wonderful. Maybe time to go the other way .. A big carton boxing glove punches you in the head in a parking lot fender bender, and the air bag packed with shrapnel weeds the rest out in a Darwinian fashion, leaving the roadways less congested for those who remember how to actually operate a vehicle.

Where the limit was, what happens when you push past it, and how to bring it back. How to get stuck and unstuck, where the corners and the ends were, and when to simply slow the fuck down because the roads were extra shitty. Cars now attempt to "convince" the driver that every day is warm, dry, and sunny and two pedals makes everything peachy keen. And the majority of people actually believe it.

    This is really easy to do: If you look closer you will see when he corrects the car after the understeer, he jumps on the breaks. That makes an extra lateral force and the car flips. At 4:15 you see his leg applying the break pedal as soon as the car turns! At 2:06, first test, you see how the car understeers. Right and left, always understeers for a second or 1,5 seconds. On the final test the car understeers for 3 seconds to the left and when he corrects it, surprisingly, the outside wheel stops at 4:03 and the lateral G force causes the car to flip. End of story, bad advertisement. Dear Fifth Gear, select your 'details' people carefully!

    You're extremely correct with all your observations, but Fifth Gear had all that happen on purpose. They wanted to show the car flipping for entertainment purposes, and the driver had the task of crashing the car. Fifth Gear wanted to encourage ESC in cars using this video because most drivers would not know the proper techniques for avoiding this. Think about it: A 60 year old mom driving her van who swerves on the highway into oncoming traffic to avoid an obstacle WILL stomp on her brakes AND probably not correct the slide. A car without ESC can flip in this case.

    If you're 100% sure you're going to crash, you should just brake and let go of the steering wheel depending on your speed. So, yes, if you're going to crash, you'll use the brakes.

    But you practically have to try to roll a car, under normal circumstances swerving out of the way of an ambulance like that does not require that much of a drastic correction, and control is easily maintained. Although some do not understand the laws of physics, and roll over anyway, or their judgement is impaired.

    +HightLink I had the pleasure of attending the Volvo XC90 show at Alameda NAS when it was released in the US. One of the demonstrations was a swerve to avoid a plastic moose at very short range and 50mph with the stunt driver's foot to the floor. What it felt like was that it jammed the brakes on on the side we were rolling towards which snapped the car round, so while steering right and rolling left it applied a lot of left side brake and we slammed back over. It was the most violent thing I can ever remember doing in a car. Impossible to say what it really did, but that's how it felt.

    ... I am usually rather impressed by 5th gear, but this is a tiny bit silly. I gather the UK now has a requirement of stability control? So this means Tiff will never again get in something as dangerous as an old Mini? Or an E-Type? OK, what about the Morgan 3 wheeler that he very nearly tipped over? What about the Reliant Robin - Does the law still allow them? And the car they did tip over - it had a roll cage in it, and belts and a safer fuel tank, but what about the suspension? Was that stock? Was it all new and in good nick? I appreciate that all you're trying to do is explain and demonstrate what ESC does, but this hasn't been thought out very well... Are all the cars of the last century that didn't have an electro-nanny now dangerous? This raises very many more questions than it answers...

In these moments of shock (obstacle incoming at 70mph) everybody can make a mistake, so ESC can even save the live of an F1 driver. TIff did another video with cars fitted with ESC. You just cant get them to flick as hard even if you want.

    ***** Experience often does not equate to skill. Unless you're paying attention and actively working to improve your driving, you're not going to become a better driver. This is very well demonstrated by many people currently on America's roads. That being said, I agree that traction and stability control systems (if well programmed/designed) can be of assistance to even the very skilled driver as, even in situations where a skilled driver might outperform such a system, the reaction time of the system can be quicker than an unsuspecting driver. It's very similar to ABS (which can be outbraked but only if you are completely on top of your game at the very instant it's required -- a difficult feat as even the most alert drivers will occasionally suffer a lapse in concentration).

    ESC is not for when you are on your best, super alert on a country road. If you spin off there, you can't drive and need to learn to judge the car/road/conditions and your ability better. It is for when you drive home late at night on the motorway, pouring with rain and two people have a crash close by and give you a nudge. That's where ESC keeps you away from the truck, because there isn't always room for the world's biggest powerslide.

    Mazda 6 No just stop talking, you have zero clue of anything about cars. If you have anything that has ESC it can be turned off in most cases. SUVs do not need it but the driver does. Due to high center of gravity, yes ESC is more likely to be used by shitty drivers. If you have any car control you do not need ESC. ESC was made because people are shit at driving. Body roll is caused by loose suspension and that is rather not present today, you had 1980s tech where they was no dampening or "comfort" was not possible in that time without having roll. Now days suspension is so advance that SUVs can corner tighter without body roll, they still need to slow due to high center of gravity, but do not need it. Also, ESC has absolutely nothing to do with body roll. There is zero connection other than it's on the car. Body roll is caused by lateral G's ESC is there to stop and apply the breaks to one side to prevent the car from going out of control. ESC is not to stop body roll.

I had that car up on two wheels. but the car doesn't come with anti roll bars. I guess that aided it from fighting me and keeping it's tires firmly on the ground, the best it could. if rubber doesn't meet the road, how can it get traction. like traction control in the rain. but speed adds factors in the mix. factors that the average driver in most cases don't or won't consider.
