I almost got myself in trouble with a 4S demo car on the highway. I wanted to move over a lane to my right, and to keep from cutting anybody off, I wanted to speed up a bit and get some separation before doing the lane change. I put my foot down, checked my blind spot, looked back in front, and I was fixing to ram the guy I'd been following. Needed an extremely abrupt lane change to avoid an accident. When I got over and took a breath, I was going 95, and this was after having my foot completely off the accelerator for a few seconds.As a side note I'm worried we are reaching a stupid level of horsepower for the average driver. My Turbo S is absurdly fast and has caught me off guard several times.
It already limits speed, which is why very few German cars go faster than 155 even though many are capable of it. Tesla's probably going to force regulators in the US to make it a formal rule.I fear regulation might start limiting horsepower in the future.
