evening news reported a factoid that 1/3 of new cars have a rollover
stabilizer/resistance system, which would be made mandatory in the future..

Google "nissan stability program" got this as first hit.

It won't actually save your a.s if you think it's going to let you
exceed the laws of physics and pull more G in slalom or avoid ELK!!
without rolling over.  It's for drivers who have run out of talent and
need a bit of help as they have gone and lifted off the gas or even
braked mid bend.

If I'm not mistaking, this will be required on all 4WD vehicles in the next
couple of years.  Those that have a head start are promoting (and charging
extra)... least that's my understanding.

All of these electronic driver aids compensate for poor vehicle
control and even bad or downright dangerous driving.  They should have
a vehicle user chip card.  Start with 50 points.  Every time the
numpty triggers the antilock braking system 1 point off, traction
control 3 points off and ESP/DSP whatever 10 points off.  When you
lose all your points you get to do your driving test again.
