I think when the driver making a turn at high speed lost control. Then perform a E-brake the car hit the curb (up slope) then turtle. If the driver had gone thru the Mercedes Experience this will not happen :).

Well said. Those who have gone for the Mercedes Driving Experience who have been told about appropriate speeding.

Anyway SKC plate, a few months old car. Sayang.

Some of the MCF forumers checked, the car was registered 4th Aug 2011, so only 8 days old when this happened.

I don't think that car comes with ESP . So even you went for the merc driving experience , Doc don't try with that car . Remember what happened when ESP was off during our driving experience ?

jap ride is called ABS - more or less is the same as EPS. For this case, even with EPS is helpless coz the car hit the curb and the wheel are in the air there are no traction at all.

I might be wrong!!

ABS and ESP are different. Merc has both. ABS allows you to maintain control and steer during hard braking, while ESP prevents your car from spinning. Correct me if I'm wrong.

ABS - Antilock Brake System. Greatly assistg during E-brakes.

ESP - Electronic Stability Program. Largely assist when car lose ctrl (grip). It evenly distributed e brake force to each wheels so to min. car skid, slide, overturn etc.. on track must turn off if gotta obtain best time lap otherwise u will truly appreciate e assistance. :becky:
