About this document
ESC: Correcting Oversteer and Skidding by Mohamad Faruq is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The document discusses how electronic stability control (ESC) can reduce fatal car crashes. ESC monitors wheel speed, steering angle, yaw rate and lateral acceleration to detect if the driver is losing control. It then applies brakes and reduces engine torque to individual wheels within seconds to stabilize the vehicle. Studies show ESC reduced single-vehicle crashes by 30% for cars and 63% for SUVs. The document argues ESC should be installed in all vehicles as it assists drivers when skidding through tech
