Imagine making a turn and your engine dying mid-way…
Present vehicle excepted maybe, but automobiles have come a long way if this seems like an unimaginable event. Random engine loss was just a “to be expected” event when I learned to drive. The decision of “stay in gear and maintain steering assist” or “clutch in and coast further” was just reflex eventually.
So, “Well done automotive industry!” But also, keep working at it.
