Look, you have three ways to control your car. Steering, brakes, and throttle. What does VDC do? It takes away part of your ability to control your car, because it cuts the throttle. Brilliant...

I'm not saying everyone should turn it off. It will keep many ignorant drivers out of major trouble. But for those who know how to control a car, it lessens your ability to do so. It doesn't fix anything...it removes the most likely thing that will worsen the issue, the throttle. Unfortunately, that throttle is sometimes needed to fix an issue. What's worse, suddenly cutting power can actually cause the issue in the first place.

I'm smarter than VDC, so the VDC stays off. If you don't know what I'm talking about, leave VDC on. If you do, you probably already turn it off anyway.
