I usually drive with it on, but 2 days ago I was driving with it off and 4got... I made a left turn and accelerated a little bit (road was wet) and my car fish tailed into the on-coming traffic lane... I took a crap in my pants and gained control, luckily no one was in the lane or I would have smashed right into them Leason learned, do not take traction control off after it had rained !
