Xan nice find. ill give you thst. That being said, seems as though between all those years there was never more then 50% reduction in accidents. In 2006 there were 56% fatal crashes and that was it. Also that was a overal survey done on all vehicals. The dabate here is of all the 370z accidents, how many were caused by the driver turning of VDC. You show me a chart of that and if it shows more accidents were caused due to having vdc off, ill shut up.

Becasue all i seen from the forums is either people running red lights and hitting a Z, people thinking someone is going to hit them so the swurve out of the way and hit something.

You're too much, I don't even know why I'm still responding, if you want to argue that VDC systems don't prevent accidents and don't save lives just because we are talking about 370Z's, even though there is a huge amount of studies that clearly show these systems do reduce accidents and casualties in both trucks and cars…
Have fun, but I won't be wasting my time on you...

Maybe you should start try your debate with the NHTSA, as they do agree it reduces accidents, so much so that they have a regulation for it, requiring all vehicles under 10k pounds, to have this system as a standard.
And no, they didn't make an exception for your 370Z....

Electronic Stability Control (ESC) | National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA)

But by all means, fight the power! I'm done arguing ignorance....

Never more than a 50% reduction in accidents???!! and therefore you conclude what?? That 50% is insignificant? And then you say that no Nissan specific studies were made and you assume that unless proven otherwise the Nissan 370 is not bound by the usual laws of physics??

i was only able to give that quick look, from what i seen there was nothing over 50%, looking at it now, the highest number bsides that 56% in 2006, is 24%.


Anyways im done with this thread, like i said, if you want VDC on, thats fine. But if you rely on it to do your work and not learn what to actually do, then you shouldnt be driving a car.

It's not worth arguing with this clown.
