Rear wheel drive kills untrained drivers (and their families).
It's not the first time I read in the papers that some poor woman, or man, slammed their rear-wheel drive BMW or Mercedes sideways into a tree or whatever, occasionally killing the child they carried.
That's when I feel like throttling the young bloods who get their jollies drifting around the roundabouts and pooh-poohing front wheel drive cars which are perfectly adequate for 99.9% of the population.
Man, I can't see the day we featherless bipeds aren't allowed to touch the pedals and wheel any longer on public roads.

- mikeash 11y agoI'd think that modern traction control on an electric drivetrain with instant response should make it a non-issue. The RWD Model S is fine, for example. You can make the rear end skip a bit if you floor it going around a good curve in the rain, but it takes some effort, and that's a much more powerful car than the Bolt. The Model S P85 can get a little too exciting, but that's a really powerful car.
