| Description of the problem | Car has now twice gone into pre-safe functions limited and inoperative mode (simultaneously) while driving with no notice, effectively removing all ability to accelerate and creating near major accidents both times. The first time occurred on the freeway driving in the second to the left lane at approx 75 mph. Cars narrowly avoided crashing into me while i coasted through high speed traffic to the shoulder. The second time was in town and without warning same thing occurred leaving me coasting in the left lane with a truck narrowly avoiding a collision and the truck having to go into oncoming traffic and back to avoid me. As there was no shoulder i had to navigate and come to a stop in the right lane of traffic. |
